I am going to get 1 pair of peacocks and I would like advice on which colour is best for a new person to have and look after. I have been reading the forum for a couple of weeks and got the info on feed and housing and I know I have to keep them caged for 6 months but which colour is right for me?

The normal blue is best I think they are the easiest to breed and the chicks are tough

Start with either or both and breed for a few years then move on to others if you want
