Re: Peafowl

I have been thinking about getting a few peafowl. I mentioned this
to a neighbor (who also has a hobby flock) and he said that peafowl
are a pain in the rear. His main complaint was that they liked to
sit either on his door step or on the hood of his new truck.

Anyone have any thoughts of peafowl? Would they get along with my
ducks and chickens? Are they susceptible to disease and needy of
special care?
I wonder if Storey's has written a Guild to Raising Peafowl? <grin>

Thanks,
