Wow! Sorry your peacock tried to mash you against the gate. Would you take a rolled up newspaper and give him a tap with it if he does it again? Our peacock strides after my husband and I when we walk in the garden, and he follows our neighbour in a similar fashion when he's in his garden too. It's a bit sinister. He seems to have an intent about it, like we're on HIS territory! I thought I'd probably take a newspaper and bop the peacock with it if he tried to start anything...just to assert the pecking order properly with HUMANS at the top! I know it sounds a bit mean, but I don't need big birds like that thinking it's ok to chase me in my own garden! :))

Actually Everest was inside pen and I was outside which
explains why all that this son of Neverland the Insane could
hit was the gate.
But later when I wished to carry a peahen through his pen
from an inner pen--I did use a light training rod to ask
Everest to go into his coop. He went in without even being
touched by the rod. Since I did not shut the door he popped
right back out of coop but I had made my move through his
pen with that peahen very swiftly.
Everest and I do understand eachother very well most of the
time.
But sometimes I tease him by standing less than two feet
from him so that he can stare at the shins that he would
very much like to whack--if only there were not those
hands ready to grab him....there is a BIG difference
between being insane and being stupid.
The way that he hit the gate was unusual--it was an extra
bad day

Oooh I bet his stare is something to behold! It'd make a grown man quiver I should think! :)x

NO, NO, and NO....
his face is innocent. Like all my white spaldings he has
blue gray eyes. His green spalding father, Neverland, had
very gentle looking brown eyes so that I could NOT believe
that he really wanted to fly at me with his spurs. His
insanity made him do it. I always deflected his attacks without bruising him.

Maxie and DCT - you two really make me SMILE! it is worth logging into this forum every morning just to have you both start me off with a smile for the day!!xx My two started singing at 3am this morning and only stopped when they eventually got up (or, got down)from their roost at 4.30am - their days are numbered i am sure! That, or re-home my neighbours!
Maxie, i have emailed you thank you for your message x
