[QUOTE="Rustler9, post: 312760, member: 440"] Peafowl roam all over and may or may not come back home. I bought a year old pair, kept them up for two months , let them out and off they went 1/2 mile down the road to the neighbor's farm. We caught them, brought them back, kept them up again, let them out again after an extended time. Back to the neighbors-finally gave up on them and let the neighbors keep them. I bought eggs, hatched them and raised them with a chicken hen. One year old, off to the neighbor's. That was my last attempt at peafowl. Guineas will roam too but will usually come back home. If you get adults, make sure you keep them up a while too or they'll be gone. They will kill snakes and eat all of the ticks and mosquitoes. They do make alot of noise, especially when it's going to rain or if anything or anyone unusual comes into their area. I actually like them and don't mind their noise. The eggs are very good to eat, kind of have a sweet flavor, that is if you can find the eggs. You might be better off with pot bellies. Pigs will sure eat snakes. [/QUOTE]
