Hey I know a peacock breeder in real life who is currently sell 2 or 3 white peafowl eggs on eBay if your still entristed

[@reillygrimley9542]

Well, there is a spot of good news. Since your first batch of peafowl had white "siblings", and these ones allegedly did as well, that means that all of your peafowl, including these new babies, are potentially heterozygous for the white gene, which is recessive. That means that any future pairings of any of your peafowl has a strong potential to produce white offspring. Genetics are awesome.

[@reillygrimley9542]

@Alexander Chen I used to breed fancy morph snakes, and learned a lot about genetics from doing that. The same basic principles apply to pretty much any animal's genetics.

[@AznTony360]

I have to agree with the genetic portion. Although one or both of the parents were white (we dont know if its even true), but looks like they lost the luck of the draw. Dominant and recessive genes.... like how 2 dark haired parents can put out a blonde, and the blonde ends up producing dark haired children.

[@KedreevaWhitemane]

I breed peafowl, and have done for over a decade, and I'm big into their genetics. White is a recessive gene for total leucism. If both parents are white, then all of their children absolutely would also display the white phenotype. They don't "carry" brown; the brown is the wild type phenotype, so it displays if the offspring don't have a matching pair of mutations; but a pair of white birds would ALWAYS donate the white gene from both sides and so the chicks would always be white. It was definitely a scam.

[@flibbertygibbette]

You should tell Morgan over at Gold Shaw Farm about the straw brace for his gosling with the splayed leg, if you haven't already. That might be a good solution.

You need to hatch peafowl on a hatching mat or foam. The only reason they have splayed legs is because they can't grip on the plastic trays when they hatch.

Those trays have texture and holes in them for traction. We rarely get splayed legged birds from our Brinsea Ova Easy incubator.

[@RKmarie2011]

You may try adding something more “grippy” to the hatching surface to help prevent the splay leg issue.

[@OCAVIARY]

In Peafowl the White mutation is dominant so only needs one copy to be expressed. However you can have single factor white and double factor white. So if these chicks grow to have white patches on their flight feathers they are single factor white. So one parents must have been a white, the other being a normal / something else. If both parents were white or are both sf white then you could produce double factor whites which is the pure white colouration. So hopefully these 2 chicks are sf whites in which case you could breed them together to produce you double factor whites, single factor whites and normals/ black shouldered

[@KedreevaWhitemane]

That is just not true.... white is a gene for total leucism and is a separate gene from pied. A bird with one white and one pied gene would turn out pied but you would not get pied from breeding a white to a white, or a white to a blue. You need one copy of white and one copy of pied to express the pied phenotype. White is also not dominant, it's recessive but bears the visual marker of white flights and a white throat latch, a marker it shares with split pied and dark pied birds.

[@OCAVIARY]

@@KedreevaWhitemane sorry that’s what I was meaning by the white patches being that it has white flights and needs 2 copies to be a pure white

[@sskmaestro]

One observation - unless both parents carry "true" albino gene, you will not get a pure white peacock.... even if you buy a pair of pure white peacocks, there is a good chance that they will give out pieds... anyways... your chicks will be a good color... hope they are hens and your blue would yield good results with them....

[@KedreevaWhitemane]

There has been no documented albino peafowl yet.... white is a leucistic mutation in peafowl, and ONLY a leucistic mutation. If you breed two whites, you will 100% get whites. The only way you would get pied is if you're breeding pied together (which would produce 25% white, 50% pied, and 25% "dark" pied which is a bird with 2 copies of pied), or breeding white to dark pied, since the pied phenotype is a bird het for white and het for pied together.

[@sskmaestro]

@@KedreevaWhitemane thanks for the info.... looks like the best way to reproduce an albino is get a pair of white peacocks and start breeding program!

[@KedreevaWhitemane]

@@sskmaestro An albino gene would need to mutate fresh since we have no albino mutation yet, so it could come from any pairing. It isn't impossible, but it's VERY unlikely. Humans have been breeding them for a very long time and there's been no documented albinos, just leucistics.

Hi Jake. Last year I bought a dozen bobwhite quail eggs off Ebay. I was really excited as I had never tried hatching any of this breed and I was wanting to get some more valuable varieties.

I’m so glad you got Narragansett turkeys. Definitely one of the prettiest breeds but you have to be careful. Due to almost going extinct in the ‘90s the Narragansett had only 9 breeding pairs left (some statistics state more or less but this is most common I find) with only 9 breeding pairs you can understand that the genetic pool is very small. Since they have poorer genetics. The Narragansett, Royal palm. And other rarer breeds of turkeys suffer from aggression. You will know if you have a naturally aggressive bird by about 7 months old. You can spend every day playing, bonding with ect. But a aggressive bird will always turn. About 60% or better of the Narragansett toms I have ever raised have turned out aggressive. To this day I haven’t found out how to stop the aggression

But it's just a lot more fun with kids that are so eager to learn. Thanks for showing yours with the kits. I know it was a sponsor but it's just nice to see a family having fun together.

Love it. Thanks again for not letting us wait

[@whitehouseonthehill]

You're welcome!

Hi there, in the area where I live (Waikato, NZ) peacock live in the wild and are considered a pest. Farmers often will shoot them. White ones are relatively common amongst the wild flocks. Hey, good luck with everything. X

[@trevynbrown5702]

Those turkeys are my favorite type of turkeys ever, congrats, I just had my last of 12 wood ducks die today, I’m happy you guys have the success

[@krhunt629]

Oh I'm sad for your loss

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Ahh, I’m sorry about your ducks.

[@ThinkAboutIt-2x]

There is a guy that had white pfoul in Neosho. He had them 2 years ago & I found him on a backroads drive as I used to like to do before fuel went up. He said he was listed as a small hatchery & on Google maps.

[@ThinkAboutIt-2x]

I looked myself just now to see of I could find them. I believe they were Diamond D Farm at 13035 Hereford Road, Neosho, MO. [phone]

[@raizaintilian]

I’m sorry their not white peacocks but even so I can’t wait for these guys to start getting I. Their colors

[@nancygiorgi9531]

Splayed legs can be a result of many things...lack of room in egg, genetics, nutrition and in addition slippery mat..however this slippery mat condition is normally found in breeder box conditions of parrot breeds etc. Great video showing process!

[@rachel6813]

we have a pair of white peafowl but sadly the male has yet to mate with any of the girls. you can order them from mcmurray hatchery though! Wherever you get them from be sure to worm them! :-)

[@lenniewatson687]

We used to go camping at Casa de Fruta in California. Their peacocks roamed the campgrounds. They had green and white birds as well as mixed green and white. I saw on the internet there is a red variety. That would be gorgeous with either green or white.

[@TheSunnites]

They are adorable! Congratulations on a great hatch! I'm sorry they aren't what you purchased though. That is pretty disappointing. White peafowl are beautiful, I hope you're able to find some.

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Thanks, Jei ❤️

[@tanyaingram7600]

Hi, with the splayed legs, you can sit them in a small glass, this fixes the splayed legs, it doesn't take long, maybe a hour?

[@mistingwolf]

I wish I could be naive and believe you were sent the wrong eggs on accident...

[@jczarnecki101]

The facility I work with has white peacock and our white pea chicks are the yellow color of chicks when they first hatch out and then are solid white within a week. Our pied are much the same except they’ll have streaks of dark coloration.

[@pawpower1023]

My mother-in-law's neighbor's peacock keeps getting out. They used to clip his wings but their sons new dog started chasing it so they stopped. He's going into get hit by a car or killed by her dog. I'm thinking about telling them I'll take him (life dream to own a peacock) but all I have right now is a five foot goat fence with electric tape on the top. I'm assuming that's isn't good enough?

[@labaccident2010]

Nah, they can fly. We had someone’s peacock flying around my house when i was a kid, landing on roofs. Apparently it belonged to someone who lived over twenty minutes away and had gotten out. You definitely need something with a roof or another way to keep them from getting out.

[@mr.pig.6760]

Wow! This is one of the first ever videos I have watched on your channel if not the first, I picked a good one to watch! Amazing video I think you more than deserve a new subscriber!

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Thank you very much! We appreciate it

[@fabriziocassetta9879]

Im sorry that you got scammed, but i love when you guys make videos on hatching!!😁😁❤

[@Propercornishmaid]

I have concierge status on ebay but I've recently stopped using ebay altogether. Since the pandemic started I realised quite quickly I was being asked to wait a little longer for my parcels to come and being told there is delays, they wouldn't come.... I'd complain to find out that by that point it'd be too late and the seller would get away with the money. I wouldn't recommend ebay to anyone anymore.

[@tbh_idek]

White peacocks are expensiveeeeeee

[@hjcunning6143]

I live in Oregon and I don’t know about Missouri but turkeys are native so we get to see the babies during breeding season and they are so stinking cute

[@briancaleb6503]

That is awesome about the solution for the legs! If the breeder had breed a white Peacock to a white Peahen all of them would have been white. But one WOULD think if at least one parent was white at least one in four of the chicks would have been white. Fingers crossed at least one will be piebald. Once again much enjoyed video!

[@whitehouseonthehill]

Great point 👍

[@ATorturedTwinkie]

I started watching your channel because i was so interested on starting a farm myself, You have inspired me. But I'm too young to do this, but You are a great inspiration and I hope you find White Peacock Eggs. (This comment was made with much love)

[@reyytt3931]

The video hasn't even been out for 2 minutes yet and there's comments of people saying they love the video 😅😂

[@Emu_Playz]

Cause they are big fans and they like all there videos.

[@reyytt3931]

Love them too, still funny though

[@debketelsen3742]

I have had problems with splayed legs on my quail chicks. They are so tiny. I will get some small rubber bands and try that trick. Thanks for showing that.

[@whitehouseonthehill]

👏

[@briannaolague2581]

Must be nice 😭having peacocks is a dream of mine

[@tvm-manducktv8375]

The heart is healed👍🥰💕

[@spziz7963]
