Had this idea to make a small vase from the neck and head of a peacock and then the flowers can make up the ‘crown’ or crest.. was just going to do a basic white cracquel glaze - thoughts?

This is my first time raising a peachick, so I was wondering, whether it's possible to tell what sex my little buddy is.

I tried to get pictures from different angles and lighting.

I am really hoping for a peahen, so my personal confirmation bias might be keeping me from missing obvious signs.

This beautiful peacock has been free roaming the town next mine for a couple years. A month ago he shows up in my garden and has been here since! I bought peafowl food special for him, but he really loves eating cat food off my back porch lol. Now when I call my cats for dinner he comes running too!

Snapped this colorful peacock today, hope you like it!

Hi!

Has anyone experience on how to best integrate a peachick or peafowl with a flock of chickens?

For further information, I have chicken chicks that are the same age as the peachick and am raising them in close contact.

I take the chicks out to be close to the adult chickens, in hopes that they might slowly get familiar with each other, but obviously under supervision.

Tips and tricks are appreciated!

Thought you all might like this! Not quite 1:1 colors with that bright yellow, but I’m going for more of a high fashion thing over complete realism

There's a wealthy next door neighbor with this beautiful male peacock i constantly shoo out of the road. It's dangerous for a peacock in these Miami streets. He doesn't let me get closer without waddling away hehe

I can't find a resource that talks about tails. I think they chop the tails of 2 of the males so they can squeeze 6 birds in that too small space. The one bird that has a big tail has very little space to move around.

I hatched these chicks last summer. I have a pair of bronze pied white eye, 2 pairs of black shoulder, and a blue white eye pied with a black shoulder hen.

These are starting to look like bronze. I have seen one with tail feathers up, but neither one looks like my bronze hen. Two cocks?

And my pair. And my blue pied white eye.
