Peahen showed up!

[Kalimak]

Hi all,

Yesterday a peahen suddenly showed up in my yard, she left in the evening because of the neighbors dogs barking. She was back first thing this morning. She looks like she wants in so bad with the chickens. Is it safe to let her in with them?

I would. She's beautiful. Maybe someone lost her. Too bad for them. Id keep her.

Any idea what they eat? Is chicken feed fine?

I would feed her a 20% all flock food and give her extra protein treats.

Game bird feed or an all flock crumble.

Can peahens be happy as a single? Some family may be heartbroken thinking that a predator got her.

I wish I would know whom she belongs to.

She might have a wing tag on her or something.

It’s tough since they can roam so far.
