PEAFOWL -
Their Conservation, Breeding, and Management
by T.P. Gardiner

Tom Gardiner has ten years' experience in answering queries on peafowl to draw on and has added to that by meticulous research into all aspects of their behavior, reproduction, and distribution. This is a very nice hardcover book which I personally keep displayed on my coffee table. 87 pages.

The ISBN for this book is 0-906864-30-5. It is available exclusively from the World Pheasant Association and ordering instructions are below:

PHEASANTS OF THE WORLD

This large (and rather expensive) hardcover book was written by Keith Howman. It consists of 184 pages and includes 340 color photographs plus many drawings. The ISBN is 0-88839-280-X.

POULTRY HEALTH HANDBOOK 4TH EDITION
250 pages, ideal for peafowl breeders, chicken and turkey owners, other bird hobbyists, feed suppliers, diagnostic food animal and pet veterinarians. Book covers prevalent diseases (prevention, causes, clinical signs, treatment, and control).

GROWER'S REFERENCE ON GAMEBIRD HEALTH (GRGH)
350 pages, written for gamebird producers but an excellent resource for those affiliated with the industry such as feed representatives, hobbyists, and veterinarians. GRGH covers disease prevention, specific diseases of common types of gamebirds i.e., upland, waterfowl, turkeys and peafowl (Turkeys and peafowl are susceptible to the same common infectious diseases).

PEACOCK GENETICS MADE EASY
By FREDRICK C. HUEBNER

Over the years, many people have questioned me about peafowl genetics. Each person I have helped asks, "why don't you write a book explaining peafowl genetics?" It is my hope that by the end of the book anyone can figure out what the offspring will be when they mate bird A to bird B, or at least, what they might be.
