Hi all, I have two peachicks that I got about 5 months ago. I’m certain on the sex of one, but still a bit uncertain (perhaps it’s more a little wishful thinking) on the other.
They’re both roughly 6 months old (exact date of hatching unknown)
I was hoping for a male black shouldered and...
Hi all
so we have 2 peachicks they're a pair weve been lucky with. This is our first time raising peafowl and i dont know but the boy seems off hes always puffed up and walks around like this on the photo- hes the one on the right. He has been treated for coccid but maybe i needed to prelong...
Hi gang,
A month ago I bought 4 peafowl eggs from a lovely guy near me. I put them in my (very cheap) hobbyist incubator with little hope but and interest to see what happened.
This morning we work to one hatched and two pipped which was exciting!
By late afternoon, it was clear that the...
Hello! I was wondering what kind of snacks would be suitable for a 3 week old peachick, other than scrambled or hardboiled eggs and cottage cheese. I have heard people mention giving their chicks things like broccoli, crickets and cat food to supplement their diet. So far I have only had the...

This one might be abandoned, but anyway. He was very cold when I found him and did not flock call. The adopted mother didn't seem to care that he was gone.
He is perhaps three weeks old. There was some drama about his mother that I shared in another post, he's been doing fine otherwise. His...
Hi Everyone, so my Peachick now old enough, i think. Can you help me? What is the sex of there 3?
Her parents are a Buford Bronze Hen and a Purple pied White Eye Cock.
At first my pretty little 2 Months old one:love, i hope so it is a cock. It shaped me from egg on. It runs after me and live...
Hi, I have a single peachick due to hatch (long story) next month and wanted to get some advice
I know to keep it in a brooder for 6-8 weeks and what to feed it but I'm in two minds whether to rehome it. If I did keep it I would try my best to find another peachick of a similar age.
We have...
Hey, new to the forum wanted to say hi! Hopefully won’t have too many urgent queries to post but never know with baby chicks!
This is my first time with birds! Although i confess this first batch isn’t chickens, its peacocks! (I got the eggs as a gift right after my divorce) a few have hatched...
Hello, I’m a fairly new peacock owner. I live on 20 acres with a lot of other farm animals. My peacock is about 12 months old. He’s been locked up in his adult cage for 3 months & did great. I wanted to free range him along with my chickens. about 2 months ago I let him out. He’s done great, up...
I posted this in Peafowl too but I forgot to add the tags, so I'm posting it here as well.
About 30 minutes ago I hatched a single peachick (long story). I believe he was shrink-wrapped, I had to assist him in hatching after about a day and a half, but he's out now. The humidity during his...
Ok y'all, I'm at a complete loss and need some other perspectives on this. I have (4) 4.5 week old peachicks and all has been fine until last night. One of the peachicks was screaming and we noticed she was pulling on her own wing feathers nearly constantly. She'd grab a wing feather and scream...
Hello! Today I had to pull 2 peachicks from mom for their survival. They always end up missing so we pulled these guys. They haven’t stopped crying out all day, and I’m worried that they’ll stress themselves out too much. Is there anything I can do to ease this? They did fine when I had them in...
I’m incubating IB peafowl eggs and not sure what to price them at. no crooked toes or any abnormalities and i’m in NE Oklahoma near grand lake so i’m not sure how much people will pay. currently i have 13 eggs but the peahens are cooking them up quickly so i might get more
Hello, all! Any advice would be greatly appreciated!! I have two - four month old peachicks that I am trying to introduce to the rest of the flock. They will be green spaulding x india blue pied (whatever that is, hah!). My pen is 25x20x16(tall) . I am able to divide this pen with panels -- I...
Good morning all!
Good news, my little guy/gal was still alive this morning! Yes, I did happy cry 😢
Question/concern: the baby CAN stand BUT falls over after a few steps (normal for new hatchlings). I’ve dipped it’s beak into the water, but it’s to weak to care.
Is there something I could...
My peachick is about 4 days old, and likes cooked egg, but doesn't like starter feed. I can sometimes get it to eat if I moisten the egg and put starter feed on it but its not as effective. I feel it isn't eating enough. maybe a teaspoon a couple times a day. What can I do to get it to eat more...
Hiya,
I'm currently looking for suggestions on how to tame my White Peahen (Hera) and my India blue Peacock (Hercules).
They were both semi-tame when I let them loose to roam our farm, where I could pet them, but now they've become quite distant and reluctant for me to pet or hold.
Does...
