What Is a Peachick?
A peachick is simply a baby peacock or peahen. The word covers any young peafowl, male or female, before it grows into its adult plumage.
People often search for a peachicken, but the correct term is peachick. They're the same delicate, fast-growing bird you'll fall in love with.
Peachicks hatch tiny, around 4 ounces, then grow fast. With good care, that fluffy chick becomes a stunning peacock within a year.

What Colors of Peachicks Can You Buy?
Peafowl come in a beautiful spread of colors. Most start as a base color and grow into rich patterns over time. Here are the varieties buyers ask for most.
India Blue Peachicks
The India blue peachick is the classic, most popular choice. India blue peachicks grow into the deep blue neck and shimmering green tail everyone pictures when they think of a peacock. They're hardy and great for beginners.
Black Shoulder Peachicks
The black shoulder peachick is a favorite for its striking adult look. Black shoulder peachicks develop solid dark wings and a rich blue body, making them a standout in any flock.
Pied and Cameo Peachicks
Want something rarer? A pied peachick grows into eye-catching white-and-blue patches, while a cameo peachick matures into soft, warm brown tones. Both are popular with collectors and ornamental keepers.
White and Other Mutations
We also raise pure white, purple, opal, silver pied, and Spalding peafowl when available. Colors rotate with each hatch, so check our peachicks for sale page often to catch the rare ones.
How Do You Sex Peachicks?
This is one of the most common questions buyers have, and the honest answer matters.
Most peachicks are too young to sex reliably in their first months. You usually can't tell male from female until they're a few months old, when subtle feather and color clues appear.
By around 6 to 12 months, males begin showing longer tail feathers and brighter coloring. For this reason, young peachicks are often sold unsexed, or as straight run.
If you're learning how to sex peachicks, give them time. Patience is part of the fun of raising peafowl.
How Do You Care for Peachicks at Home?
Raising peachicks is rewarding, but these are delicate birds. The first few weeks are the most important for survival.
Here are the basics every new owner should know.
Warmth and Brooder Setup
Keep your peachicks in a warm, draft-free brooder. Start at about 95°F in the first week, then lower the heat by roughly 5°F each week until they're feathered out.
According to Meyer Hatchery, peachicks should stay in a draft-free brooder for their first 8 weeks because they're very sensitive to chills.
Feeding for Strong Growth
Peachicks need lots of protein to build those famous feathers. Start them on a game bird starter feed with around 28 to 30% protein.
A medicated starter also helps protect against coccidiosis, a common risk for young birds. Always keep fresh, clean water available.
A 2-Month-Old Peachick
By the time you have a 2 month old peachick, it's stronger and more active, but still needs warmth on chilly nights. Most chicks can move outside around 6 weeks once daytime temperatures stay above 65°F.

FAQs
What is the best age to buy a peachick?
Many buyers start with chicks a few weeks old. A 2 month old peachick is a bit hardier, but younger chicks bond more easily when hand-raised. Both can thrive with proper care.
Can you tell if a peachick is male or female?
Not at first. Most peachicks are too young to sex for several months. Clear signs like long tail feathers appear closer to 6 to 12 months of age.
Are India blue peachicks good for beginners?
Yes. India blue peachicks are the hardiest and most popular variety, which makes them a great first choice for new peafowl owners.

How many peachicks should I buy?
