Thinking about raising a peacock?
Interest in peafowl often starts with the feathers and the tail displays, but keeping a peacock is a long-term commitment. They live for years, need appropriate space, and have a call that carries much farther than most people expect.
If you are seriously considering raising peafowl—now or down the road—it helps to talk with someone who is already living with them day in and day out.
