Hi all,
When we moved into our house about 3 years ago we inherited a Peahen and 3 Peacoks, however in a very short time 2 of the males disappeared without a trace, so for the last 2.5 years we have had just one male and a female.
At night they have always slept in a very large Willow tree, despite my efforts to build them a tree house for a bit of shelter.
Sadly I got up this morning to find Mrs P dead. There were no signs of her having been attacked, and despite the very cold weather we have had, for the last few nights including last night it was mild, so I am assuming it was age related.
However I now have a problem and need some advice please.
I am now left with a sole Peacock and I don't know if I should try and rehome him so he is with other Peacocks, or leave him in an environment that he knows and is used to, albeit a lonely one?
My worries are if I rehome him, it may to be to someone who has their Peacocks caged, not what he is used to. I'm not sure if I want to try and get another Peahen, so any advice would be appreciated please?
