Isn't that beautiful. We saw one showing off in Florida at a wild animal Safari south of Okechobe several years ago. He was having the worst time staying upright seeing it was terribly windy that day. Do you think they are albino or a different type?

Probably a color variation bred by man.

Nice pictures.

Beautiful!

Looks like it has dark eyes, so not likely albino.

I don't think I've ever seen a white peacock before.  He is certainly beautiful.

It was posted on a kayak fishing forum that I visit. they claimed that it was an albino. Maybe the eyes just didn't show the pink. I think that the natural coloration of a peacock is just beautiful, but in this case the lack of color is also pretty good eye candy.

I've seen white peacocks up close multiple times. They aren't albinos. I knew someone who raised them and they used to run around loose at the zoo here too. Personally, I prefer the natural color.

Wow Jerry, that is impressive. I'm at work and don't have time to even scratch the surface of it all. I'll read more later. My wife loves kayaking, it is her favorite thing to do on a sunny day. We have a really nice creek near our house. I'll post some pictures later today.
