So we just checked our game camera photos and there's a peacock in our woods?!

Had to Google it. Apparently wild peacocks are a thing in Texas. I had no clue!

Have anyone else’s hens been in a heavy moult? Our blue stars and barred rocks look pitiful with no tail feathers and naked necks!
Feathers feathers everywhere!

Tis the season, lol. I have a few molting now; others molted a couple months ago. It's just a part of having chickens. I have one lady that always seems to wait until it gets cold then drops her feathers crazy fast.

Lucky you! I've never had one show up but I have a friend who had three living in the woods nearby for several years.
