I have our first peafowl and need help. I have 3 about half grown peafowl and are keeping them in an enclosed pen about 10x10. I also have an assortment of about 12 chickens that are in a larger enclosed pen 25x25. My question is can I let the peafowl loose in the larger pen with the chickens? I have been told that the chickens will peck the peafowl. Also, I have been feeding them meatbird feed mixed with cracked corn. If I can let them in with the chickens how can I make sure that they have enough nutrition? Do they have to have the higher protein food forever? They are really growing and I hate to keep them so confined. There is no way they can free range as we have dogs that will kill them.
As you see I am a novice new owner.
Thank You
