    The big question - sex of peafowl?

    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...

    Can 3 month old peafowls be with 3 week old peafowl?

    Hello, I’m thinking about taking in two more 3wk-1month old peafowls but I already have two 3 month old peafowls. Would it be okay to keep them together or would I have to keep them in separate spaces?

    Brooding Peahen - infertile eggs

    Hi!! We had a peahen wander onto our farm last July. She is seemingly happy and has clearly shown no interest in leaving. She started brooding a few days ago in some tall grass by our garden. I'm not super concerned but I don't think she is sitting on fertile eggs because there is no male...

    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...
