Strange things do happen. Some years ago I found evidence
that MICE were clipping tips of peacock train while those
peacocks were sleeping on perches in my coops.
I have had peacocks that would destroy thier own feathers.
Right now I am experimenting with feeding (as a treat) some
dry cat food to provide extra protein for a white spalding
who had been making himself look like a frizzle chicken. I
think that this has helped but will not be certain until he
grows his next train

Author: D C T [ Edit \| View ]	Date Posted: 08:11:35 07/12/14 Sat I rembember her very well. First she posted that she lost 26 peachicks when a storm uprooted a tree. But after Hurricane Hugo several years ago nobody has heard from her. I had her email address and sent a message but NO reply. So I do not know if she is dead or just no longer is on internet.

You are welcome. I am the "friendly poultry orthopedist"
and have my own forum now but I check on this one just to
clean house on spammers. This used to be a nice forum and
I do miss GrannyPat.
