Peafowl lay from April to Sept. That is the time frame we generally have eggs and chicks available. Contact us today about placing your order.

This is a mixed pen of rare colors so we get PURPLE,  PURPLE PIED, IB, IB PIED, SONJA’S VIOLETA, SONJA VIOLETA PIED, SILVER PIED, or WHITE, or birds split amongst these colors. As well as White Eye gene. There are both regular “wild” shouldered and black shouldered birds in this pen. I have also gotten a silver Pied chick from these birds.
Purple Peacocks have a purple color to their feathers when the sun hits them… The color is a royal blue with a purple sheen to it…There is purple in the eyes and they get pinkish fringes on their feathers in late summer.

Sonja’s Violeta color is explained at bottom of page… and see pics. Very Rare New color…

Pied is a blue or purple bird with white markings… White is pure snow white… I have a male of each color and females of same coloring.  The 4 Peacock males are in with 10 females in one enclosure so every hatch is a surprise as to colors. The blue dark pied is split to purple and purple male is split to white so purple pied are also possible. Did you know you can get some solid whites from Pieds… Now you know…. My favorite is the “loud pied” which has about 50% or more white mixed through out the colored bird.  Here is a IB loud Pied:

 

Gorgeous color and top quality stock.

Eggs: All Peafowl eggs we sell are $35 each. We only send an extra egg if you buy at least 5 eggs, or if I have an extra i am just going to throw out if I have no other orders to fill. We recommend buying 10 or less so we can be sure they are within the 3  days of being laid at shipping.

The eggs you pay for will be 3 days or less from day laid, any extras might be a day or two older. No guarantees on fertility although our percentage that we have incubated have been around 75%, probably because we have several males. Mailed eggs will most likely have less hatch rate than we get, from the shipping process and handling time of mailing them. I stop sending eggs when the last of the males starts to drop his train feathers around September because the percentage of fertile eggs will start to go down at that time. At that time I only hatch chicks so any possibly infertile eggs are not sold. If you are still waiting at that time for your egg order, you can get a refund or wait until following year or put your egg money towards chicks I hatch out into October. Eggs are collected over the weekends and shipped at beginning of week to help keep them from getting stuck at a post office over weekend. USPS Priority is 2-5 days and they do not consider them late until after that.

Peahens lay in clutches and then will take a break before laying another clutch. If females take a break in laying I will ship eggs when they start back up again to make sure the ordered eggs are within 3 days of being laid at shipping. I will text or email you tracking number when they are shipped. After you pay please send me your phone number to write on your package so post office will call you to go get your eggs when they arrive. You need to make sure your address is correct on your paypal and ebay account for me to ship your eggs to before you purchase them. DON’T FORGET: I ALSO NEED YOUR PHONE NUMBER to write on package for your Post Office to call you for pick up when they arrive there.

**Eggs Shipping is $35 for USPS PRIORITY MAIL. This includes USPS insurance for the cost of eggs. We do not deal with insurance claims. so if you have broken eggs, lost parcel, or late delivery you will need to contact USPS online to get your insurance claim paid to you. We will text you a photo of your receipt at shipping. Shipping Priority mail lower 48 states only. Because of the fragile nature of embryos and the many things that cause unseen damage during shipping such as temps, jostling, and x-rays, we do not guarantee they will develop for you. In my opinion chicks are safer way to go, but we will sell and ship you eggs if you like. But please note we do not refund or replace eggs in any situation. If they arrive broken or past 5 days from shipping, you will need to do a USPS insurance claim and then it is up to USPS if they will give you payment on insurance claim or not. That is not up to us. We do not offer replacements or refund in the event eggs do not develop for you or if infertile. Even in the case most or all do not develop, we do not refund or replace. Again, we can only guarantee that we are daily taking the eggs from the peafowl pen that has 10 hens and 4 cocks, and handling the eggs with the best care putting them on egg turners, in a humidity and temp controlled wine cooler that stays at 60 to 63 degrees F and 60 to 65% humidity, until they mail to you. When they mail out they are within 3 days of being laid, and we box them well for shipping to you. Eggs that are over heated, get too cold, xrayed, exposed to harmful pollutants such as pesticides, or jostled too much during mailing may not develop at all, so we can not and will not be responsible for any that do not develop or any bad hatches. If worried than you should order chicks instead. 

OPEN BOX AT POST OFFICE. If any eggs are damaged or box is later than 5 business days from being shipped, tell the USPS worker to take note of it. And then you need to immediately take photos of all the box inside contents and outside along with stickers on outside, take pics of the damage or losses, and all receipts and invoices, and then go ONLINE TO FILE A INSURANCE CLAIM with USPS. Remember to only ask for the cost of the actual losses, not shipping costs, or your claim might be denied. If an egg has been broken and it’s insides are on the other eggs, you can put claim on all the eggs, since this can cause other eggs to not develop. You can still try to incubate them after making the claim, just in case they are still viable. ( When placing such a claim Make sure to send pics of the yoke mess on the other egg wrappings).  Again, we can send you receipts if needed but it is totally up to you to make the USPS insurance claim and then wait to see if they decide to pay your claim. If eggs arrive late you may also decide to put in a claim since they are a perishable item and delay can cause lower viability, but again, even if you place a insurance claim, still try incubating them, just in case something can still develop. If you order eggs or chicks from us you agree to everything written on this page. 

Thanks, Tina

Please note:  Shipping costs include postage and premium packaging/padding materials and USPS insurance.

Incubating Peafowl eggs: Each incubator temp and humidity can be different for best hatch rates. It depends also on your location and retaliative humidity and temp in your area. I will state here what works for me at my home in Missouri. I use a Brinsea 56 EX with automatic humidity and eggs turner. I set it at 95.5 deg and 40 to 45 % humidity. I keep an eye that moisture loss is good and change humidity as needed. At day 24 I put mine in lock down which is taking them out of the turner and laying them on their sides on paper towels, (good idea to make a bumper so eggs can not get kicked around by hatching siblings, I do this with taping straws to a paper towel to act as bumpers for the eggs) and then up humidity to 70% or more on day 25 and they start hatching on or just after day 25. Never had one hatch before day 25 or after day 30. Do not open incubator or you may cause humidity to drop and chicks will get stuck in their shell. You would need to up the humidity to at least 70% in the room you have incubator in to open the incubator during a hatch and match 95 temp as well, or relative humidity in room will not be same, causing chicks to stick in shell. Yes I have helped chicks out before but did take the chance of it hurting more than helping. There are many youtube videos on helping chicks out of the shell if you have an emergency happen. Do keep in mind that peachicks are more fragile and weaker than chicken chicks at hatch. They move slower. Not a great idea to have both peachicks and chicken chicks in the same brooder because chicken chicks may bully or scare the peachicks into not doing well.

DAY OLD CHICKS: $120 each, minimum order of 3 if shipping.

ALL Chicks of any age are sold as – Straight Run Chicks: Straight Run PeaChicks are un-sexed, randomly selected and each chick has a 50/50 chance of being a male or female. I also do not guess colors… I try to work with you and so if you want white chicks I will try to get you what you want but please understand day old chicks are hard to guess color on and a chick that looks white might actually be a black shoulder and vs versa. Same goes for the other colors… So most of the time you are just getting random colors. As soon as they hatch I can send you a text of each chick so you can choose which ones you want, but if you do not get right back to me immediately. I may have to guess and send chicks I think you might like, because chicks need to ship soon after hatch, while their egg sac is still feeding them. If chicks are older and are shipping as juveniles price might be different as well as shipping.

Shipping: $75 USPS Express for up to 8 chicks. You will receive a text message when your chicks ship along with tracking info. Chicks usually arrive in the morning 1-2 days later and your local Post Office will call you for pickup. Chicks are never delivered to your home address, even if you used a home address for your shipping address.

Don’t forget to have everything set up for your chicks before they arrive. They will need:

HEAT SOURCE: Baby chicks require heat of about 95 degrees their first week of life. Second week you can lower the temperature to 90 degrees and so on with every week going down 5 degrees until 6-8 weeks old or when they are ready to go “outside”….. If winter months when its time to transition outside you may want to keep a heat lamp in their coop. Any heat lamp needs to be a RED bulb. This will keep them calmer, less stressed, and lessen pecking. Make sure there is not any drafts or cold air blowing  around the chicks’ brooder. A chick that is walking around and pecking and cheeping every now and then is a comfortable chick. A chick that is cheeping very loudly and wont settle down is uncomfortable. See chart below.

 

BROODER: Bedding should be a non slip surface such as wood chips or pine shavings. But many people, (and I recommend), to keep the peachicks on textured paper towels such as bounty brand for first few days to week so chick does not get confused on thinking wood shavings are the food and can easily find the food and water. Do not have them on a slippery surface or they will get splayed legs. The more stable surface also helps any curved toes straighten out quicker. Peafowl can flutter up out of a box so make sure you have a cover on their box.

FOOD: When chicks arrive make sure they are eating. dip their beaks into the food and water. MAKE SURE TO GET NON MEDICATED FLOCK RAISER CRUMBLES FOR FOOD… DO NOT FEED MEDICATED CHICKEN CHICK STARTER TO A PEAFOWL. You can feed medicated gamebird starter or non medicated chick starter that is at least 20% protein. No more than 28% protein. *Then feed 19 to 20% as adults. Chicks and adults like treats such as fruit, vegis, mealworms, and crickets. You should also have grit available throughout their life and when laying eggs you should have oyster shell available. You can give protein high snacks if you want to give more protein such as cat food and mealworms.

CHICK SEEMS WEAK: Check to make sure temp is correct under heat lamp where chicks keep warm, also that they can get away from the heat if needed. You can give your chick Gatorade or something else with sugar and electrolytes to give them energy. If chick is real weak you may need to use a dropper. Some shipped chicks can get weak along the trip. Best thing you can do is keep them warm and get  water and “sugar” into their system. Most of the tie they bounce right back.

CHICK HAS CROOKED TOES: Many chicks are hatched with toes that are not straight and it can  take a few days for the toes to straighten out. If your chick still has crooked toes when you receive it you need to look up how to straighten crooked chick toes on youtube. It is a simple tape splint you change daily for a few days. Just make sure chick can still get to food and water with the splints on. Call me if you need advice.

Is shipping chicks safe? Freshly hatched Chicks do not need food or water for at least 72 hrs from hatch and many due fine even longer than that. Shipping express USPS day-old chicks helps ensure a safe arrival since they will usually be just 2 or 3 days old when you receive them. Our packaging is professional with a brand new chick shipping box, grow gel to snack on, and nesting material. Chicks have been shipped this way for many years.

** Chicks Shipping Cost: $75 Shipping Express 1-3 Day Shipping for sending a box of chicks via USPS. Professional packaging and insurance for cost of chicks is included with the cost of shipping. USPS insurance claims for damaged, lost, or DOA chicks is solely the responsibility of the buyer. We at our farm do not replace or refund on chicks that arrive weak or dead or die in days or weeks from arrival. It is only our responsibility to make sure chicks are newly hatched and looking good at time of mailing them, any losses there after are not our responsibility. Even when chicks are picked up in person from our farm, we do not guarantee chicks once handed over, since the care of chicks is out of our hands at that point. When mailing chicks I will text or email you a photo of your receipts. OPEN BOX AT POST OFFICE. If chicks are hurt, weak, or dead tell the USPS worker to take note of it. And then you need to immediately take photos of all the box contents and outside along with stickers on outside, take pics of the damage or losses, and any receipts and invoices, and then go ONLINE TO FILE A INSURANCE CLAIM with USPS. Remember to only ask for the cost of the actual losses and not the shipping cost,  or your claim might be denied. If you order eggs or chicks from us you agree to everything written on this page. Thanks, Tina

Below you can see most colors we get. We also have Sonja’s Violeta and Sonja’s Violeta Pied and white that is split to Violeta that is not in the following chart. This is a very rare new color that is more mahagony black in shade and deep ocean blues that blend into dark teal and aqua green. It in my opinion has an off deep ocean blue-aqua tint in full lite but more of a mahogany purple black undertone. It is a color that is best seen in person.

Pics below of a violeta cock are from George Conner. Rest in peace George, You will be very much missed.

Here are some more photos to compare the different colors. As you can see in the photos the lighting and totally change the color. Purples look Royal blue in some light and purple in other light. Same can be said for Sonja Violetta coloring.

Here is a Purple in setting sun:
