Those who need help in sexing peafowl

I could try to but the scale I have is one to measure my weight so to find that out I would have to measure me and then Thor and subtract my weight from us two and then same goes for Calypso. What is the average weight for a peahen and a peacock? I will take pics of the scale so you know I'm not lying about their weight.

That won't be accurate enough... I know, I've tried. I'll let you know how much they should weigh in a day or two.

well my peahens usually weigh about the same as gallon a milk and the peacocks can weigh a gallon and a half unless they have a full train then they weigh about 2 gallons, don't own a scale so i use milk measures

Milk measures...that's a first. Very Interesting.

Whatever works works. I might try the same thing as well. The method I just suggested worked for my ducks, Kenia and Kida. Kenia was 3 pounds and Kida was 1 or 1.5 pounds.

And oddly enough, probably pretty darn close to their actual weight.

Weigh each bird three times and if you get the same answer it might be accurate enough.

If you can, do it in grams or kg.

Again. Very interesting. I didn't know that. Guess that means I can list a Peafowl since I have no trouble with milk gallons.

I will check with Thor and Calypso I might just use something I already know the weight of and compare it to their weight or use a scale. I could convert it on my cell phone. My phone can convert lbs. into grams and kg.
