Show off your Peas!

I bought 10 white chicks three years ago, only 2 were hens

See NEVER FAILS!!!!!!!! Now days I just assume EVERYTHING is a male and then I am pleasantly surprised when 1 or 2 are not.

Also one other thing I just remembered. She said that a few of her hens just started laying so that if I were to get peachicks wait 44 days. She hasn't put any in her incubator yet. She also said that she has 300 peafowl total. I was like you have a lot of room for that many peafowl. She said she would save some white peachicks for me.

Who is this? 300 birds, that is a huge amount.

I forgot her name. I have her saved down as Peafowl lady in my phone. She said she's been doing this for 35 years. She said that she almost always keeps peafowl aside for FFA, 4-H kids, or kids that want to get started with peafowl and will do classes and drop the price for them if the price is in the part. She said she has: IB, IB BS, Silver Pied, Pied, White, Purple, Opal, Java Green, and I think she said she had Bronze. I've tried finding her and the only way I can find her is through Craigslist.

Is she also in ID, or maybe a member of the UPA?

Google her phone number if she has this many birds and sells them her number is going to show up as well as her name and address. what state is she in?

about the train...would it make a difference if they are free range....like maybe since they are not in a huge area that his train is smaller...or is it just the angle of the pic that makes them look so long...when he displays he is prolly 7-8 ft...is that normal or should it be bigger....?

IMO free range would have nothing to do with how long the train grow but would on the condition it is in, Master P the comming 5 year old has a smaller train as far as how full and long it is compared to the other 2 bloodlines coming 3 year olds i posted and they all free range.

She's in ID. She's in eastern Idaho and I've tried to Google everything that I can think of that would involve her. The only place I can find her is on Craigslist. I don't know if she's a UPA member. Wouldn't be surprised if she was. I will have to ask when I call her again.

Google her phone number if she has this many birds and sells them her number is going to show up as well as her name and address. what state is she in?

ID. She's only 3 hours away and I would be willing to drive that far. Also I have an aunt that is about 45 minutes away from her so I might have my aunt take me back there when the pen is built and we can get the peachicks.

Well with free range they don't have a consistent nutritional intake unless you keep food out for them. Such as if you look at my wild male Genie and Colbolt my penned peacock you can notice a few things different.

Don't pay attention to the train length because that door is 4ft and the fence is 3 ft. Look at the barring part of the wings. They are different, not sure what causes the difference or if it's just the way it is I will have to look at photos of Colbolt when he was younger. The wild male has 2 deformed train feathers. Colbolt's train is full and has no funky train feathers that I've noticed. I don't know if the deformed train feathers from Genie are nutrition as well. He has one ocelli feather that didn't fully develop and is split down the middle looking like two mini eyes and he has a swallow tail feather in the middle of his eyes. Their trains side by side look almost the same length.

Is the area code 208?

Also my peafowl have constant things to eat on the range things grow here year round and they also eat fish at the ponds and they prefer this over the flock raiser i put out in the evening, so your statement does not apply here.
