Peafowl

[Couch Potatoe]

The proper word for a peacock. Male Peafowls are called Peacocks, and female Peafowls are called Peahens. Peafowl chicks are called Peachicks. Peacocks generally have a deep-blue body with bluish-green [tail feathers], tan wings, reddish tails, and two small white stripes on each side of their face. Peahens are generally a dull brown with a white breast, a full-white face with a stripe going along their eyes, and black on the top of their heads. Peachicks are generally a brown as well with black specks along their feathers, a white breast, and a [yellow face]. The rarest color of Peafowl is the [White Indian] Peafowl as well as the Albino Peafowl. These are extremely rare and sometimes sold for thousands of dollars. Indian Blue Peafowls are commonly found in India and are a favorite in zoos all across the world.
