Welcome to D,J, & L Exotic Acres.
We currently breed 10 color and/or pattern mutations of the India Blue Peafowl (Pavo Cristatus). These birds are commonly, and mistakenly, referred to as peacocks. The term peacock applies only to the male bird. The females are peahens and the offspring are peachicks. A group of peafowl is called a party. We breed 3 pattern mutations, barred wing(dominant or wild type), black shoulder, and silver pied. We have recently acquired a pair of spalding purple blackshoulders, a pair of spaldings split to (carrying) Buford bronze, and a pair of purple spaldings. There are approximately 185 color, pattern, and hybrid combinations recognized by the UPA. We have a White peacock and White peahen. These are NOT albino birds, as they are very often, mistakenly, referred to. Click on the above links and pay close attention to the eyes of the birds. You will notice that they are blue, not pink as you would see in an albino. We also have Guinea fowl available, preorder only. |
