We did it, me and my dad finally moved our peahens. We moved one of the pied hens in with the pied male and the india blue hen out of the pied male's pen in with one of the india blue males. Now we just have to catch and move the skittish Black Shoulder hen in with the IB split pied male. We also have to figure out what to do with the other pied hen who we think is and egg eater, does anyone have any solutions to egg eating or do we just have to get rid of her?

I have heard of a trick to deter them from eating eggs. They blow out a few eggs and then fill them up with mustard and hot sauce. then they put them in the pen/nest (where ever they usually do it or can see the egs).I have never had an egg eater so I dont have personal experience but I have heard of people who have had sucsess with ducks/chickens/turkeys.
 
You get a sweing needle and pierce a hole in the top and bottom. Big enough for the yolk to spill out. Than just blow really hard...
