If she starts laying and you do not know how to find her nest a few things can happen, if she goes to sitting and it is not a safe place a predator can get her, if she is a confirmed sitter she may sit the eggs till they rot and bust which will attract every wild critter around with the smell...
I have no idea i do not know how your place is set up, how much problem you have with predator's or if you have time to work with him if he tried to go some place you do not want him, being raised by his mom would not assure his survival no more than it would hers, it all depends on how your...

When New 2 pfowl (suzy's) Mr Peggy moved here from Californian it took exactly 5 month and 5 days before i could finely trust him to stay here, i would let him loose ever couple weeks and observe him until i felt he was homed in here, he has been free ever sence no problems, if your hen is...
Yes if he mounts he is a male hens do not do this only males to my knowledge male even mount inanimate objects also like stuffed toys and even each other when on a stuffed toy, i call this leap frog LOL

I am sure they will, the thing is i am retired and can monitor them 24/7 and i will know if things were going amiss with them, peafowl are much different in free range rather than a aviary no matter how big that aviary is and i believe that not forced to stay in a smaller area can make a big...
I will have to disagree here, when they are younger they are harder as you have to work with them more to keep them in the area you want once they are older and established they should stay put as the blues have, time will tell for sure but from what i can tell they will be fine by the age of...
Green beans on the range, as you see see it can be done with some time and training we have succeeded in doing so here on the farm, they like the blues have and are teaching me many things and i have really enjoyed working with them and dispelling the myth that it can not be done... If anyone...

Spindly crest or missing crest without new growth showing can be from internal parasites , when and how did you last worm your pretties?? I have never ever had another bird pluck a Crest off of another here not even in a pen and in all honesty if you did not witness crest plucking i would not...
It is my understanding the name silver pied came from the back feathers as they have all silver or partial silver on their backs and hens are silver where blues would be colored , that pieds does not even have any white in the colored eyes so i say it is an extremely loud pied , but unless you...
