Those who need help in sexing peafowl

[zazouse]

They are beautiful! They seem really friendly! Are all of those peafowl in the second pic males? Or at lest the IB Pieds on the right? Because I saw 3 peafowl on the right that didn't have barring on the shoulder and the one peacock still had a green neck but it was going blue along with the head. I'm going to take a pic of Thor and Calypso again because Thor is getting some blue or green like quills across his head when I was doing chores today. He's getting a little bit more barring but his shoulders still aren't as barred like Colbolt's shoulders but the secondary feathers above his primaries are getting barring. I think he's just one of those peacocks that isn't maturing as fast. I think the reason why he's late is because he will be so beautiful when he's older. Also I'm training Thor and Calypso. So far it's doing good. When I do certain whistles they respond differently. I use one to say there is food and one to try and get their attention.

All the ones with barring are boys and the ones without are girls.
Yes they are all pest follow me around on the tractor sometimes and i can't get anything done nore get rid of them so i can, i just have to stop and wait till they find something else to do now that the tractor is not running around with their Momma LOL

Well I'm glad Thor is getting barring. I think he's just a late bloomer. My neighbor has told me that she's had males do the same thing as Thor and agrees with me.

They are beautiful! Calypso has the speckled breast but she has no green peafowl in her. The person has no green peafowl or any breed connected to them. He only has IB, BS, IB Pied, Silver Pied, Cameo, Purple, and White. I wonder why Calypso has a speckled breast. I've never seen it before.

Try having 30 plus younguns , one would not seem so bad
