    Should I get peafowl

    There are many variations in peafowl but there are no breeds. Your criteria is quite unrealistic although if you happen to develop such a bird the world will come knocking at your door.

    Puny 10 day old peachick with yucky poo and not gaining weight

    If it is cocci it is probably too late to order the toltrazuril but here is a place I have ordered it from before. I order 500ml and larger so I use a different supplier now. Chewy.com may also have it.

    new peachick, alone and needs to eat/drink

    The chick will have enough egg yolk in it to survive for a few days, it is not imperative to feed it right away. It will start to peck at most everything soon and find the feed. Dipping its beak in the water is the first thing you should do but feed is not a requirement yet. Put a bright...

    Serial Perch Bomber - Any Suggestions?

    I have known breeders that completely remove all the perches during the breeding season. I have lots of perches high enough to walk under and some that are adjustable where I can lower them down to four foot for the season. Eggs don't usually break dropping only four feet onto the grass...

    Truly noisy?

    There is also different sounds that High Spaldings and Greens make that the IB type doesn't make. One of them is kind of trill and exotic sounding. Look at some of these sticky threads, housing is in one of them. https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/peafowl-sticky-topics-index.389059/

    Truly noisy?

    If you are concerned about noise then you should probably not get any peafowl. Those of us who love peas love the 'noise' and miss it terribly during the winter.

    Newly hatched peachick can't stand up!

    Newly hatched peachick can't stand up!

    Good job on the chick. The ideal setting is one that allows the egg to lose about 15% of its total weight during the incubation process. Your local conditions are unique to you so you will have to experiment what works best for you. You do this by weighting the egg as you set it and weekly...

    Newly hatched peachick can't stand up!

    Good news, is there are no signs of slipped tendon although you should spread the toes a little more when you apply the shoes as in my picture above.

    Newly hatched peachick can't stand up!

    Unless the parents are closely related it is more likely an incubation problem. What you are describing could be because of incubator temperature or humidity are off and the floor surface may be too slick. Use the woven rubberized shelf liner for the best results. Find a lab quality...

    Yearlings trying to mount

    I have hatched eggs out of yearlings before. Early hatch chicks can be mature enough the first full year, (yearlings). Usually they need a more mature cock to make the eggs viable, yearling cocks can lack the mechanics necessary for successful mating.
