Well i couldnt handle 5 peas, a guinea & a 2yr old all in the same house lol..so the new peacock palace is up and running- still needs some fine tuning, but theyre spending their first nite out anyways.

I used one of the stalls in the barn & added some deer netting on the half wall, built a raised wire floor & put it on hinges so that it makes for ez cleaning.My DH's uncle built this pea palace- i didnt ask..he just did it...im not sure how i feel about the perches with that rope, they look nice..but- it might need to be moved as they grow so they have more flying room.
This is my first time putting my peas out on wire, I have always just put them in pens..with dirt

perches graduated so they wont poop on whoevers below

theyre not too happy about the move- they preferred roaming my house..so its been nothing but crying since theyve been out.

Its larger than it appears, & has alot of height

btw- one of those black shoulders is getting green patches..does that mean male?
and..the one with the white flights is getting single white feathers in random spots- so maybe its not a split..maybe its a pied? (fingers crossed)

Nice, guess here with those pics, IB 2 hen 1 male, 1 bs male (green is that a spalding) Look like opal chick also, Tell later with better pics. What about 4 to 5 weeks old??
 
I have no clue of the background of any of the chix- they came from 2 different breeders, 2 i hatched from eggs & 3 - the 2 bs (one is getting green patches) & the one with lots of white in the wings & white flecks developing came from another person who knew nothing about peas..they were given eggs & hatched & sold them- so no clue whatsover as to what these will turn out like..I was hoping for somehting intersting..like some awesome pieds
