Beautiful White, and IB White Eyed. You also have sunshine if those are recent.

Zaz, just curious, when you start raising your peafowls, was there any birds carrying white eye genes?

I got my first pea chicks in 2010 and yes i have pieds caring the white eyed gene

I am getting 10 IB silver pieds From Rocking B-A-B so i expect i will be seeing many silvers in my future

This is what the white peacock above looked like the day i brought him home on 9-9-2012 he has come along way

They will be babies i do not want fully feathers peas, takes to long to integrate them with my flocks, i will put some of my imprinted hatchlings in with them in quarantine to help settle them and make them more friendly, peas see, peas do

Hello everyone!
I know I do not pop in here often enough. I miss reading all these posts and seeing all your peas but such is a life of a busy farmer. And I spend a lot of time of Facebook nowadays so I am guilty of having other computer time taken.
For those that don't know me, that is okay. For those that do know me from way back when, I wanted to update my peafowl status.
I have finally started bringing my adult peafowl home from the old peafowl place. Here are photos of a pair I haev never shared before last week. My Cameo peacock, his Peach hen and I added a Bronze hen to their breeding pen that will be 2 years old this year. I hatched the Bronze hen from my breeding pair of Bronze, which sadly I lost the mother a few months ago when she got her head caught in the fence and could not get it out. The peach hen lays maybe 2 to 3 eggs a year. They have never developed so this year I am trying her on a different diet.

Keep me in mind when they get old enough to have babies!

Welcome back!!! Must be nice to finally be able to just walk outside to see the peafowl instead of having to drive to see them.

Thanks, everyone!
I sometimes come over and look through the photos and read a little but don't get to stay long enough to talk. This is my favorite peafowl place!!!!! I have others I am a member of but this one is fabulous! And you all have always been so nice!

My next pair to come home is my Purple peacock, One Eyed Jack and Roche. I may bring one of the silver pied or pied hens home with them to make a trio since Purple is definitely one of my favorite pea colors. I sadly lost both peachicks that were girls out of Jack and Roche last year. I hope it isn't something genetic since my other peachicks did very well.

This is my Jack and Roche. She is an India Blue because I do not have any purple girls yet. I really think a silver pied hen woudl cross well with him, too and then maybe make some silver pied purples.
