A little while ago, everyone was chatting about their birds eating small animals. I thought you would like these pictures that my kids took the other day of their little peahen. (She is not yet full grown.) They are not super clear, they were taken on the fly....

Here she is holding a live mouse by the ear. She had just pounced on it and snatched it up.

She takes off running with it....

Pauses to get a better grip by it's scruff...

Pops it into her mouth....

And swallows!

Small peahen, at least partially alive grown mouse!

Poor mouse....

This is awesome! I cannot wait to get my own peahen!

I knew that troyer would win first place! CONGRATULATIONS! Like I said, he looks like a butterfly!

When will the male poultry be judged by.

 

[ShelbyCoral]

Congratulations to all three of you! What breed is 1st place?

Cubalaya, I think.

 

[troyer]

Cubalaya, I think.

First place is this rooster in a regular stance. I also hatched and raised the above rooster. These two are actually half brothers, they have the same mother, but different fathers. This one is 3/4th Cubalaya, 1/8th Dark Cornish and 1/8th Sebright.
