Peafowl


I visited a good friend today. She told me that she had raised two Peafowl, a cock and a hen, from eggs at her mom's farm in Dodgeville. She was going to give them to us as a housewarming gift. Unfortunately, they were both eaten by predators.

If it is true that it is the thought that counts, I still think it was an incredibly nice thought.

  1. Eek!!! Why did I click on the predator picture??? My neighbor has chickens and coyotes are not uncommon in this area, I often freak out about that.

  5. Glory von Hathor- it is a nice thought!

    Aunt Lou- Two of them have two heads! Or maybe if I gave them some of that d.u. I've growing organically out back...
