When peacock eggs are just laid and left out in the open and not in the nest situation are they alright to pick up and use in cooking. I have been given peaccoks and found an egg in the open today and would like so help in looking after the hens. What else can I give them to eat beside, multigrain bread, wild bird seeds mixed, black sunflower seeds, greens from the garden, nastursiums, fruit and vegies? I am trying to pen them in my orchard soa s they can nest naturally in the trees and forage for themselves for grubs,worms etc?

Here in the USA the breeding (laying season) is over except for peahens with confused hormones. A freshly layed peahen egg is good to eat. My securely penned peafowls are fed scratch grain and layer pellets with dry cat food for a treat. I give them chopped leafy green vegetables whenever I have these. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
