Those who need help in sexing peafowl

Ah come on. If you give the right answer and we are all wrong and Thor still turns out to be a he, I will still honor the deal.

Thor is going to lay eggs next year.

Only if those eggs are fertilized will they be layed and hatch.

Using the top picture in post #148 of this thread and the statements BIrdrain92 has made directly to me, tell me why the bird cannot be a peacock. You cannot use any logic/factor that has been discussed thus far. The first person to PM me with the correct answer can have your choice of any of my chicks hatched priced $200.00 or less this spring as long as you pay for the shipping.

In this picture the coloring on the back of the head and neck is quite blue/green, but the chest feathers have way too much white edging. If it were male I would expect that the chest feathers to be the same color. And then there's the lack of barring and primary color, but hey, I'm still quite a novice, so maybe I'm missing something more obvious?

A couple of Blue Creek's juvenile pictures are pertinient to my challenge.

Good point Kathy. You are beating around the bush. Getting warm.

Clue: What did he tell me it could not be?

The brown coloring of the head?

Or the markings around the eye?

Both could be pertinent but not definite. See your post #34. Look at the boy, then the girl.

Thor would have to be a female for one, 2 if Thor is a girl he would have to be 2 years old unless breed with a mature male, most likely if Thor was a girl Thor wouldn't care about the eggs because Jadea didn't care at all about the eggs. She would lay them and abandon them. Your saying if Thor is a male and I end proving everybody wrong that thought Thor is a girl you will give me a chick so long as it's one that is under $200 but I have to pay for the shipping? If so deal.

You have to answer the riddle correctly first.
