pea chick

Are vitamins or a higher protein content more important in feed? I am comparing two pellets. Also are the vitamin levels in the lower feed too high for peafowl? One feed is for meatbirds: 22 percent protein, 1.2 lysine, 0.5 methionine, 3.5 fat, 4 fiber, 0.75 calcium, 1.25 max calcium, 0.6...

Recently acquired three chicks, all now around 6 days old. Two of the three seem to be thriving just fine with healthy progression and activity (though maybe a bit of eyelid tugging which has landed them in birdy jail), however one of them is significantly less active. It's spends the majority...

I have 4 of these 1 month old peafowl I got at auction only labeled pea chicks. From the very minimal knowledge we have on peafowl we think they may have some green heritage. BUT AGAIN, very very minimal knowledge. Any knowledge would be greatly appreciated. Thanks from Milams Farm T&F

Photos of the hatched peachicks, now that they are all fluffed up and posing pretty! The last one Fable, i posted about in the incubator forum- i had to help them out of the shell. They are doing alright! They have some spraddle leg issues but its being fixed. The other 3 are fine with no...

I am looking for Peachicks and fertile eggs here is Colorado.

Hello! I’m incubating chicks. One has already hatched and it only took about 4 hours from when I noticed the pipe. The second egg piped and we’re now going on 36 hours since then. It’s opened enough that I can see it’s breathing. Doesn’t seem to be sticky. Every once in awhile it chirps. I don’t...

This may be a silly question, but do you give any of your fowl antibiotics, medication, anything of that sort? Hopeful for a reply! We just got some peachicks, about to have them in an aviary by our chicken pin, and just curious if we need to continue them on medicated chick feed starter or if...

Hi all. These three peachicks are just over 4 weeks old. My question is what colour are they?? The hen is Indian blue as is the peacock but as you can see, two of the chicks are very pale - does anyone have any ideas??

Hi everyone 👋 I have a 6 week old pea chick that our friends found while on a walk in their neighborhood. It had just hatched (seemingly- it still had the egg hook on its beak) but mama was nowhere to be found. After looking for hours for its family, they took it home and called me since I’m...

Hi, I have 5 peafowls and just yesterday I noticed that one of them kept falling as it tried to get up and walk, I took it out of the cage and checked for any injuries but there were none, so I’m worried and freaking out because I don’t know what’s wrong and it seems to be limping and losing...

First peafowl egg pipped yesterday morning, I noticed it at 7am. No progress at all and after all 3 other eggs began to unzip after pipping much later after the 1st I did an assist out of the egg. Very slowly, using water to keep everything moist etc. No visible damage to the peafowl so I...

I would really love to get a couple baby pea chicks. I would like to give one to my Mom for Mother's Day and raise the other with my baby chicks. Anyone near KY have any available?

I have been thinking about this for ever. I want there to have a BYC poultry day. You could send out a survey for a set day. A chicken, duck, and goose competition could be held and the winner will win 30 trophy points other competitions could be held also.
