Show off your pea Videos :) - do your peas jump on you too?

[autumnmfisher]

ok this was two weeks ago, The chicks are all 5 months old. When i bent over to tape the new bs pair houdini jumped on my back. you can see the camera jump a little. then my daughter tapes for a minute while he climbs on top of my head. Houdini always wanted to be a parrot i think

Anyone else got such friendly peafowl??

it amazed me when i watched the video how big he'd gotten!!! for comparison here he is - on my shoulder like always - at 3.5 weeks. I knew they'd gotten bigger but i just didn't realize till i saw it with my own eyes

ok i don't know how it plays for the rest of you but it cuts off the right side of the screen the whole video. sorry.

The video shows up okay, nothing cut off

. Houdini HAS gotten bigger!!!! Wow!!!

Your gang looks great!
But it looks like Houdini's gotten a bit too big for head-sitting!

do you have a albino peacock?

 

[Mmmaddie13]

Albino peacocks don't exist, but I do have a white one.

 

[Ghostbelly]

really i thought thats what they where

It's okay! Peafowl genetics are crazy. It's not albinism, but actually a thing called "leucism." Here's the wiki link to it if you're interested in reading more about it.
