We had new babies hatch out this week. Sigh. I really did not want any more peacocks/peahens...but here are 3 more.
Here you can see one of the babies...far behind the mother and the other two-trying to catch up!
Early this spring one of the pea hens tried to hatch out some eggs, but a c
oon or something else got them (maybe even the neighbor!) and they did not survive. That was actually fine with me.Then last month I found her sitting on a nest of 5 eggs. I can not kill anything just to kill it, so we figured here we go again...5 more. Somet
hing got one egg, so then down to 4. Yesterday they were hatched out in the early morning, but one did not break thru its shell all the way, so did not make it. So 3 new babies. We do not know if they are female or males. (hopefully males
).Here is one of our males...
