Picture of the Peabody's (peafowl)

Well if this will work here is the pictures of Mr. and Mrs Peabody. These are the male and female Peafowl I have and if all goes well I will have a good number of little Peabody's this spring

Is Mrs. Peabody supposed to look like that? Looks like she literally has been "rode hard", if you get my drift.

Son and family had a couple of pet geckos for awhile- Mr. and Mrs. Geckman. Laid eggs, but never any little geckettes.

Both are young birds and she has been in a small cage up till Last Sunday and when she got out she had a bad landing in a tree so she got a little messed up. She now hangs out in the horse barn so hope she will weather the winter

Looks like an India Blue Peacock and a Black Shouldered Peahen and they usually have to be 2 years old to produce eggs that hatch

Yep from what we where told the hen will be right at 2 this spring and the cock well not sure since he just showed up one day but going by his spars he looks like he is coming of the 2 year age this spring also. I do know for sure he is showing off a whole lot to the hen which I figure is a good thing LOL

How many eggs does a peacock lay, I was told 3 is that correct.?

old · Oct 24, 2012

I have no idea but if like most birds they lay as many as hey do. I know ducks can lay most of the summer as will a goose and of course a chicken lays pretty much year round so I can not tell you

None. The pea hen does the laying.

OK.... since the man of the species is called a Peecock... What's the female term :roll:

Traditional Farmer · Oct 25, 2012

Peahens usually lay between 10 and 20 eggs a year startng in late May

Simple if you think about it so what is it since she is a hen???

old · Oct 25, 2012

I just hope that I will be able to find them after she lays them. I would then bring them in and incubate them instead of letting her hatch many if any but again that would depend on where she put her nest. Due to the coon and opossum problems here I would be afraid she would end up as coon food or some such thing
