Show off your Peas!

That is so cool that he came back! Can you get him a girlfriend? Maybe he will stick around? Must be great knowing he's still alive and well

It's a miracle that he is still alive! That is not a predator free area!

Thora and Marshmallow maybe. Though they aren't old enough but he would have two hens. Sadly he's very skittish so I would have to trap him or get somebody with a tranquilizing gun to get him. He stays near each coop so I would have to leave the doors open so he would enter

Why don't you just keep throwing food to him for awhile? Maybe he will stick around?

If it's your bird,that 's the proof that you can keep peacocks on free ranching in your place!
I think peacocks have only a 10-day memory.

I would put the dust in the dust bath spots or where they roost. Also one of my peacocks I lost 3 years ago decided to pay a visit back to where he came from to see the girls and his brother. How I know it's him because I'm the only person with peafowl in a long ways.

Birdrain, what is that strange green stuff all over the bottom of your pen? I haven't seen green stuff like that around here for months!

Congrats on your male returning.

I would bet he hasn't been fending for himself for the last 3 years though. Over the years I have had strange Peas show up 4 different times and hang with my birds. I have also had a couple (usually young bachelors) go missing for awhile, usually they would come home after a few weeks, and I would eventually find out that they were at a neighboring farm mooching off a kindhearted soul. He looks too good and well fed to have been foraging for 3 years, in Florida maybe, but not in an area that has an actual winter when food gets really scarce. JMO

That is not true

birdrain atleast you know there is enough food source in your area to keep him alive...seems like hes doing well for free ranging...glad hes still around

He probably has been eating grass, grub, and any other plant he could eat.Last time I saw him was in our neighbor's pasture eaten the horses grain. That may have been why he never left because he found an easy food source but he needed others and I have both. He disappeared for a little while but then he shows up and I don't know anyone close to me that owns peafowl. He doesn't like people he keeps his distance but if I were able to leave one of my peafowl doors open without the others getting out I would be able to trap him.
