So when we moved on to the farm we live on currently, there were already two peacocks living here, Billy and Willy. We have no idea how old they are but were told they are brothers. Since moving here we've adopted another peacock and 3 baby peafowl. They are all basically wild, roaming the property and foraging for food. We give them treats as well and they love to eat whatever the horses and pigs leave behind.

my peas and chickens all congregate at the feet of the horses when I feed them to eat whatever falls out of their mouths

Not right away but by August he had quite a few spots, some were orange but they all turned black by his yearling year. His mother Dottie still has her orange spots and two of her sisters also have a few spots. Ray is already paired with all three of them for this breeding year.
Dottie is the last pic, Ray baby pics are the first two pics.

Your nomenclature is incorrect, you are ignoring the fact there is a white gene influence to this Peach BS.

Not as pretty as some, but here is a collection of photos I have taken of Pete (IB cock), Paloma (IB hen), Pearl (IBBS hen), and Petunia (cameo hen) over the past few months.
