    Older peacock, both leg joints swollen and soft.

    I’m robbing someone else’s picture because I have both his legs bandaged up and used an antibiotic ointment called mupiricon. No breakage on skin/scales. He was limping on one leg for a while so I isolated him and fed him full of good food, some vitamins, ACV, and added green/blue mold from...

    My peacock keeps chasing my dogs

    Hello everyone! My male peacock keeps chasing my dogs. To the point they are all including himself out of breath. I’m not understanding what his problem could be. They are guardian dogs so they literally won’t do anything to him besides protect him. But the dogs are obviously exhausted with it...
