What Type of Peacock is This?

[Peacrazy]

These chicks were all ebay eggs. Well all but the blue. It's one of mine. So i know it is a blue and I think it's a hen. But not sure.
As for the other chicks....I think the eggs I got were miss labeled. We hatched a brown chick out of a silver pied egg! So not sure what I have. We had bronze, silver pied, and purple eggs. I lost my silver pied chick and my bronze. Out of one of the purple eggs we got the odd chick that was yellow at hatching and now has lots of brown showing up in it. Take a look and see what you think these babies are.
A Indian blue hen?

B The little brown ones.....are suppose to be purples. What do you think?

I may be wrong but I think the lightest colored one is a black shoulder.

 

[Peacrazy]

Would that be a purple blackshoulder?

 

[Peacrazy]

If I'm correct blackshoulder is a pattern not a color.

May be difficult to tell if it is purple black shoulder at this point. Patience will tell when it begins to get its first feathers with any colour. Good looking brood though!

The yellow chick looks like a blackshoulder to me. One of my peachicks looks like the darker chick and I was told that it was a purple, but really not sure.

In picture D
top chick is male the next 2 are hens and the last looks like my purple BS chick looked like. Unfortunately I do not have regular purple birds so to me the brown chicks look IB. You can contact the breeder and ask what the parents are in each pen. Now if he/she says they have a purple BS peacock in with a BS hen all females will be purple but males will be IB BS split to purple if my gene info is correct. LOL But you will know much better if you contact the seller and ask. We can then give you a more accurate answers.

I didn't mean it in that way

geese are known to live 30 years

I was just curious as that price is very high imo

I remember back about 20 years ago the farmers market the peas never went higher than £20 with most sales settling in at £10 off the auction privately

Sorry, not trying to be a jerk but its kind of amazing, geese can live to be 50-60 quite commonly and the oldest on record lived to be 101!!!!!!!
