can anyone tell me is you can keep peacocks in the same coop with bantams? we are thinking of purchasing 2 peacock chicks from a local breeder who claims that we can keep them in the same enclosure as our silkies, if we switch the feed for the silkies to wild game feed. the coop is 12'x24'x7' and has 16 silkies at the present time. just wondering if anyone else has heard of this or if they just want to make a sale.

They would probably be OK while the peas are small, but once they reach adulthood I don't think it would be advisable. Peas get BIG fast and the silks may get used for traction... :)

The area seems large enuff to divide?? I used to keep my Peafowl with the Fallow deer until 1 of the the damned bucks killed my Peacock! My Peacock was my main man so I shot and ate the deer!

*LOL* wow, fanci! That's ONE way to teach that buck a lesson!

I'm surprised he was able to kill the pea, they are such tough little buggers...
