In my amateur opinion I think Thora is a hen, a weird one but a hen.

You guys have spent the better part of 5 months convincing me that Thora was a hen. I'm convinced. I'm convinced. Sort of......

Not only no cookie, but no treats whatsoever.

I'm sorry, that's why I'm afraid to let mine out!

MinxFox keeps her peas in an aviary.

Yes like what new 2 pfowl said, mine are in an aviary. My first pair I free ranged but they ran away so I stopped free-ranging. Besides even when they were free-range I couldn't always look after them and they were so good at hiding that it drove me crazy worrying about where they were. Now I keep mine all penned, but that doesn't mean they are safe. A few years ago maybe a year after I got that beautiful pied peacock, a raccoon broke into my aviary and killed him. A few days later it came back and killed a peahen. Then I found out it wasn't one raccoon, but two big boar male coons working together. I have had a lot of raccoon issues, and so just because my peafowl are in an aviary still doesn't mean they are 100% safe, hopefully with some good improvements that all will change. So far the highway has been doing a good job killing all of the local huge raccoons that would be a threat to my birds.
