Subject: Re: White Peafowl....harder to raise? Author: D C T [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 19:38:55 08/10/06 Thu In reply to: brenTx 's message, "White Peafowl....harder to raise?" on 16:23:55 07/27/06 Thu I think that I already explained that Malpo is NOT related to her present mate. But I did not say that she is the grand daughter of a green peahen that I bought a few years ago in order to enrich the gene pool. When I was in high school I got top grades in biology. Dropped into college when I was round forty years old and again (with much more effort) stayed at top of biology class for two courses. Then my father's Alzheimer's disease caused me to drop out in 1985. But am straying off subject. Am not oversupplied with money. Nor do I have any help with caring for my flocks. Need to "down size" . But there is one thing right now that I do have in over abundance and that is chicken eggs. So I have been hard boiling them and feeding them to the peachicks. I even cook infertile peahen eggs. If I eat any more eggs I am going to grow feathers!!!! [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

Author: Cheryl Little [Edit] Date Posted: 19:28:50 08/11/06 Fri I read an article a few years ago that regular whites are not as strong as whites out of siver pieds. I had some problems with a few whites and then I have another young pair of whites that I bought last year that have not been sick but then again, I do not know what they are out of. Cheryl
