Three days ago we had 2 peacocks make an appearence on our property (at my house, away from the horses), one male and one female.
Yesterday the male returned and spend the entire day up at my grandmothers, where the horses are. He doesn't seem to bother them much, just wanders around the place. I guess he got in with my stallion for a short period of time yesterday morning. Chip chased him around a bit and the bird flew back out of the field.
We my grandmother turned the horses out this morning, the peacock was in Chips field again. She put Chip in with him anyways, thinking Chip wouldn't scare the bird off again. WELL! The bird has been in there all day with Chip. Chip eats at one end, while the bird roams around the other end. They get close every once in awhile, but don't seem frightened of each other. With my luck they're probably best friends and I'll never be able to get the bird to leave.
Anyways, I wanted to find out about peacocks. I don't really want it around the place, but I don't know how to get rid of it. Any ideas, that don't involve hurting the animal? What should I do?
Thanks, Erin
