Jennifer, I am sorry to hear your news. Also sorry to say that we have had some experience with preditors this year also. First I tried the "night guard"...
Hi, I'm Cindy in Nebraska (near Columbus, Val). I've joined your group because an Indian Blue peahen showed up on our property a month ago, much to our...
Hi Cndy, Chances are she will disappear as fast as she appeared so don't make any long range plans. Jon ... part without Junipers. She likes to hang out under...
... I don't think so. She seems to really like us and our safe, park-like lot. She's spoiled already. She has everything she needs except shelter from the...
... RUN RUN, chase her away immediately!!! You will be sucked in like the rest of us if you don't!!! A walk-on is how it started for Gundi and I. A BI cock...
Cindy, I agree with you. We had our first peafowl (a male) show up about 9 years ago and he never left. Same scenario - tried to find owners, but no one...
Hi Cindy, We have free ranging peas and penned ones. The penned ones have an inside shelter and a perch outside. They always opt for the outside perches,...
Hi Jon, So nice to see someone else that has peas that wont eat supposed favourites! Ours wont touch any milk products. So many times with sick birds, I have...
My cousin had a Peacock (male) show up at her place years ago and he's still there. He roosts in the trees, of course we're in Alabama so it's pretty warm...
it is true that White peacocks are not as easy to breed as the indian blue? low fertility rate and high post hatching mortality? I will appreciate if anybody...
They breed, they hatch but they don't seem as hardy as the colors so you may have to give them special care. Jeannine Edgar Rossal <erossal@...> wrote: ...
Thanks! By saying a SPECIAL CARE...What do you mean? Edgar Jeannine <shihtzubooboojz@...> wrote: They breed, they hatch but they don't seem as hardy as...
... Julie, We have some outside roosts and sometimes a few of our birds will end up there rather than on the roosts inside their shed. In our case I think the...
Thanks Jon, we have light set ups in all of the inside pen houses - it just didnt occur to me to use them! DUH. We have just let out a trio of blues to...
Our pea houses have lights in them and the birds stand outside waiting for someone to come turn on their lights before they'll go in to roost. We leave the...
I agree, I would bet that if you don't get her a mate, she will move on, in search of one elsewhere. I had that exact thing happen many years ago. I was...
Edgar, My whites breed and hatch well. I only have one grown hen right now. I hatched 10 chicks from her this year. I have sold all of them but 2 pullets. My...
Hey, I just wanted to send a reminder about the UPA convention that will start next week. I am getting excited! It is the first time in years I haven't had to...
I have a 3 year old white cock, and an unrelated blue pied hen also 3 y/o. asking $250 for the pair, would also sell 1 purple hen and 2 purple black shoulder...
Thanks Iona for your message! Well I am glad to hear that you have new friends at home!!!!! I have to tell you that my 4 blue peachicks are growing well and...
LOL I have better things to do than to look at a pea's ass with a magnifying glass. I can usually tell the sex of the whites by the time they are 4 or 5...
That was awesome. Thank you. Jeannine Valerie Farris <bluepeahen@...> wrote: This doesn't have anything to do with peafowl, or birds, but, it's simply...
Hi Guys. I have a question for those of you with both Cameos and Cameo Black Shoulder chicks.... This?was my first year with a Cameo hen and with chicks from...
I have had a decent hatch this year even tho I was gone. My main loss of peachicks was due to a racoon raid and to several that were splay legged. all are ...
Here are the photos of the new Peas. I am like a kid at Christmas. The little Modern Game cockerel is just cause he is cute. Iona McCormick Quiet Place Farm ...
