I raised two peafowl (peacock and peahen) you'll need to keep the peafowl off of the ground as there can also be diseases that other fowl can't catch, but they can. Keep them off the ground for 6 months, there's also some things you can add to their water to give them an even better chance, but mainly just keep them off the ground! Hope it helps in the third try!
The man himself have to answer him
I arey
Agry
agree
They also have to have a high protein diet which if your feeding them with the rest they aren't getting.
I can't explain why but the pied baby is to DIE for. He's SO cute. Congrats on getting some soft puffy babies to hatch!!
I agree! The pied chick is so cute and reminds me of amethysts
I hope all the pea chicks grow up healthy and strong, and that they get to have a wonderful life in that awesome aviary!!!
It was so cute to see Isaiah help feeding & milking the cow. He also seems very interested in what’s happening in-&-out of the incubator. Uriah has always been intrigued by the happenings on the farm but as he gets older he wants to be more involved. Hope everyone is doing well. Cheers, Doc❤
I still remember when Isaiah was born, time flies, he has grown so much, it's like seeing one of my nephews grow, this channel is so inspiring and we can't help grow attached to your family. please keep us updated in the future, I hope your farm and your channel will keep growing.
Thank you!
So trilled 4 pea chicks have made it this far. Praying for these tiny baby pea chicks. We have to put these chicks in The Lord’s hands! Prayers ❤❤✝️🙏🏼
It has been a mountain to climb to say the least. 🙏🏽🙏🏻🙏🏼 Happy father's day
Another thing u can do for any foul. Get a shallow pan a litter pan works great. Fill half full with diatomatious earth. Set in coops or pens. Theyll do the rest with a dust bath. They love it. And they carry it into the nest boxes and coops too.
Glad to see you and your family excel. So exciting to see your journey. Thank you for sharing such entertaining and education content!
I’ve been watching your channel since 2018, and it’s amazing how much your farm has grown over the years (especially your new land you bought back in 2019! It feels like just yesterday!). This is my #1 KZhead channel that I always watch. Keep up the great work guys!
Thank you very much for following along!
One of my favourite farming families on youtube...thank you ❤️
Thanks!
Peacock have to be very protected for the frist 6 mounts not touching the soil at all and I feed them with some boiled egg and raw carrots, unions and some other greens that have alot of vitamins. Very good luck
No doubt about it, we WILL have peahens in the aviary when it's finished, been watching Jake, Becky and the kids for a few years, I have faith in you Jake 👍👍
This is the way kids really learn! So cool!
Woo Hoo! Way to go, White House family! Can't wait to see them full grown. ❤️
Happy Father’s Day! I found your page while in early stages of my pregnancy last year and now my little boy is almost 1! Your children have grown so much since I started watching! It’s wild!
Hopeful all goes well for you this year round.! You learn more each time.. . Best of luck!
Awesome results 🤩 Always so much going on at White House on the Hill ❤
3:24 Never bathe a broody hen. We here use bathing to end the broodiness of a hen. So definitely not a good idea to do that just before giving her the eggs.
Hopefully they stay healthy and will grow up to be beautiful! Have a great day!
Congrats!!! You're doing great so far.
4th year is the charm ❤ hope this year these peachicks grow up to be beautiful birds
We have fixed the curled toe issue with 2 chicks, both much worse than this one. One we bought not knowing it had a problem the other was given to us because the breader had heard we had fixed the problem before. One was a Cochin the other dorking. Because we didn't bread either of them we received them and started treatment at 4 weeks. My husband did the treatment. He made a custom boot for the effected feet or foot and attached it with elasterplast, which is like a fabric bandaid. He would than do phyo on the toes to encourage correct movement every day. He would remove the boot every second day and make adjustments or a new boot as the foot grew. Both chicks ended up walking normally, the toes never looked exactly normal but the improvement was great and it allowed them to have a normal life the the flock. Good luck with your chickies.
Hey quick trick for you birds, cats, and dogs. Life saver btw saved my dog from worms. But adding a splash of applecider vinegar to their water and it'll help with mites and ticks and fleas.
Love little Bella’s soothers! So funny! Great job on the pea fowl!
So happy for you with the four! Can't wait to watch them grow. I think the pied will be pretty. We had pied whitetail deer at the family adventure park we work at. Very pretty!
It would be awesome if they named the pied one Piper, that would be so cute🥰
I love when the pea chicks wings start coming in, they look so cute!
I couldn’t be more excited for all of you!! It’s like I was doing it myself only I haven’t done all the hard work you’ve all done! Congratulations!!🎉🎊🍾
Here hoping every think goes well with the chicks.....Y'all are such a caring Family....God Bless y'all ❣🙏✝....THANK YOU.... 👍 Old Shoe 🇺🇸
Hoping and praying this is the year it works out! I love pied peafowl, so hoping all the babies hang in there!
@whitehouseonthehill I have been taking care of peacocks for lots of years, and i do have to say that chickens are not the best to use when taking care of peachicks. (I originally found your channel when looking through yt one day and saw your constant posts about peacocks.) Worms give peacocks diseases, and what i saw is that the same reactions seemed to be happening (as per blackheads disease) the best way to keep them from dying is havung a peacoxks parent, giving them earwigs or beetles (junebugs, japanese beetles) Peachicks are able to die of stress if left alone too long. Peacocks are a type if bird that usually hatch a day before schedule, and siblings are much needed. (Peachicks can fly within a week or 2.) Alas, i hope you found this post helpful, or do find this post at all, and if you have any further questions just reply and i can give you my e-mail and i can guide you through the steps and care needed for the peachicks
I've got 8 peafowl eggs hatching in 7 days. We shall see. Peafowl are like Ratites in that they are super fragile and prone to high death rates until they are a few months old. Plus they only lay once a year. Much more involved and difficult than the chickens.
Make sure you keep us updated!!!
Another a commenter that raises peafowl said to keep them off the ground for about 6 months. Apparently there's things that peafowl can get from the dirt that other birds don't normally get at all. Good luck with them.
They also said there's things you can add to their water to give them a better chance.
I was so worried about you guys,I heard horrible weather was headed your way,so glad it missed you guys😁👍
Yay! I hope everything works out this time for you! ❤💜❤💜
I love your vlog style, it really inspires me to start a life in the countryside😍
Awesome!
You are tenacious, yet flexible. I admire your determination to keep experimenting until you find what works for you. My experience with peafowl is limited, but they were always like turkey poults, once you got them to about six months old, you can't get rid of them! lol Best of luck! R
It's nice to see the younger boy helping mom out and you can see he is really is interested in helping and learning how to do thingss soon he will be doing Jakes Job. I can't wait to see the out come in the future with the birds growing up and the kids as well it's nice to see the family growing up and to see the farm developing as time goes by.
sending blessing to the peachicks they may grow healthy and beautiful
Omg I’m so excited, I have been waiting for this vid for so long! I hope the chicks survive, good luck! 😉
omg a pied one ! they are soo soo beautifull !!! amazing !! i hope they grow healty and strong !
I am praying for the best for your white peafowl chicks … I know you’ve worked very hard as this process and you all deserve to have this be a success. I’m glad you were able to get the three checks that you have now and just praying that they make it to adulthood. I sure love your channel and I love the enthusiasm of the boys as a help you with all the animals😊❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Heyy Jake. I raise peacocks and I struggle my first year too but I recommend to keep them in the brooder until they are at least 3-4 months old and constantly be cleaning their area and I wouldn’t recommend to put flakes on the bottom they are known to eat them. I will put some hay and keep them on probiotics in there water to keep them healthy
👍🏻
If the Pied peachick survives, you should call it Pied Piper! Or Piper for short
Oh so another great thing to do is use ivermectin pour on for cattle you can do like 3 drops pure birds, it will treat up to a year.
I see your videos as soon as they are uploaded and have to wait all day until my little ones are in bed but it is always worth the wait. This is a great channel and I am constantly learning things that have or will help me with my own little hatchlings.
Oh I hope they all live!!! They are so cute!!
I hope you keep the pied one, I love how unique each one is.
Happy fathers day and good luck with the peachicks!
Man i can’t believe I’ve been watching for so long already. I’ve watched all your white peachick videos!
Great job on the video and congratulations on the pea chicks 👍🏼❤
I am always excited for your adventures!
I look forward to seeing the finished aviary .
Hope they all live this time around 🙏🏾🙌🏾
By the way dipping a brody hen in water has a 80% possibility to make her stop wanting to hatch eggs . I know that cuse my granmother does it
Thanks for sharing ❤ Love your family. God Bless 🇺🇸 Watching from Jacksonville Florida 🌞 😎 🍊
So happy for you and I'm sure once the aviary's complete the future chicks will have a great survival rate
Hopefully this time it goes well for you! Wishing you for good luck ❤
I hope so too!
U got it this time in life every one wants to give up on some thing speshal to them and this video just proves what can happen if u keep going and never giv up love you guys 100% lovely family ❤
i am SO happy for you all! FOUR PEA CHICKS!!! i'm happy to watch the grow!❤❤❤❤
The piebald one could be the prettiest of them all~ May they all grow up big and strong!
Glad that U did not give up on hatching p-chicks. They R so very cute. Thanks 4 sharing and thanks 4 all your KZhead video adventures. Cheers !! 😎😎 🐤🐥🐣🐤🐥🐣🐤🐥🐣🐤🐣
gd to see you trying again.
Hoping all goes good with your pea chicks. You inspired me to try hatching out chicks for the first time! I'm learning from your experiences. I've owned chickens, ducks and guineas for years but never incubated eggs. Not even letting a broody hen. My first hatch was 60% hatch rate. Had a few stop development for some reason. Not sure what the problem was where some did hatch. But I'm going to try again!
I have been watching your lives since you got Bamboo's egg and hatched it out and I always look forward to your videos.
As for the twisted may be a nutritional deficincy (riboflavin) in particular so you could administer it
With you being so worried about the getting something, why bring them outside just for the content? It only takes a second for creepy crawlers to crawl onto them.
God Bless Your family and fur and feathered family as well. I've been following for several years now. I'm so happy for y'all that you got some white pea chicks to hatch. I hope that last egg under the hen hatches for you. Hopefully she mother's it well. Especially since she wasn't consistent with sitting. I wish you successful pea chick raising this year. Love your videos.
Thank you so much!
@@whitehouseonthehill i made a post, sorry i was a bit late to even comment here, my post may help you out quite well
Can’t wait to see!!!
Sitting here watching y'all's videos, I thought to myself what is my favorite channel........drum roll please! White House on the Hill!!!! Y'all's videos and children make me happy and feel good! 🙏🕊️🌹♥️
Thanks 😊
@@whitehouseonthehill thank you all for everything. Love from a grandma in Texas 🤗
Congratulations!!! 3 years is a long time to work on the white peacocks. So glad that you never gave up. Did you ever apologize for blaming the vet for the wing break?
Oh I wish you every success with those adorable white pea chicks.
Im excited to start my journey with peafowl and these videos are super helpfull
You guys are my favorite KZheadr❤❤❤
Praying 🙏!! ❤️ Happy 😄 Father's Day!! 🥳🥳 ❤️
you can add a zebra finches in your aviary it's fun to watch them
Happy Father's day!! Awesome video i always love them
Fingers crossed 🤞🏻 for great outcome
SOOO exciting!!! 😮 Wishing you the best of luck this year... I'm hoping the pied chick is male and has some pretty colors to go with that white. 😁
Kids raised well with the nature 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Happy Father's day Jake!
Rooting for you!
Those look pretty healthy and pretty! Good luck with that.
Fingers crossed for your success!
Peachicks r def hard to raise. I have my pair that should start laying in a yr or 2. My breeder always told me to keep them off the ground for the first yr. And keep an eye out for gape worm. That took out 2 of my older hens. I LOVE Pied peafowl. They r sooooo beautiful!
Happy Fathers Day Jake! When I was in Texas, staying at a hotel near Austin, I kept hearing what I thought were cats meowing outside our window, in the parking lot. Turned out to be 6 peacocks. (They’d roam from the nearby farm) Never realized how closely their calls are to cats until then 😂 Lots of luck with these ones! Looking forward to seeing them in the aviary! Any estimate on when it’ll be ready for them? Been watching for so many years now, I can’t wait! 🎉
They are like meowing cats, and at times like screaming children hahahah my husband’s family home was across from an elementary school in a neighborhood that had rogue peacocks. It was always a fun game to guess if it was a kid or a peacock shrieking 😆
great video hope theses pea chicks live Happy father's day!
This is my idea of heaven. I wonder how you manage to run a small farm and still make enough money to survive and pay for all the farm upkeep because I would be all over this.
you should name the pied peachick piper, you know, like the pied piper? XD I wish ya'll the best of luck getting them to adulthood. :3
I just finished my 7th batch of chicks in a 16 egg, budget Amazon incubator and I have learned a lot about the process. I am ashamed to say that I killed several baby chicks because I opened the incubator during lock down so my friend's little girl could see the chickens hatch! 😭😫 3 looked shrink wrapped by the membrane, 9 others hatched...I am so mad at myself! My chickens lay such big eggs that I can only put 12 or 14 in at a time and every other time I have gotten between 7 and 11 to hatch and never had any get shrink wrapped. The other times, I set it up and the only time I opened it was on lock down day...I have learned my lesson...the hard way.
The pied one is beautiful!
Good luck with your peachicks . I know how hard peafowl are to raise
Good job Jake your AMAZING
Yeah so glad
The journey makes the destination worth it!
Absolutely
I love the pied chick! He looks so cool ❤❤
i hope these peachicks survive all the way into adulthood to fly free in the aviary
Yea finally
I pray that they all be ok and I love your channel and content 🐤🐦🐓👍🏾
Happy Father’s Day❤
We need update of them 😊😊
