Turkey + Peacock?

[Swampfox201]

Is it possible for a turkey and a peacock to breed? Local hunter bagged this bird yesterday. He said it was standing with a bunch of turkeys.

As a Tom is male and a peacock is male, I know it's not a cross between those.

They are wild birds and will often fall in with turkeys if allowed to roam.

It's a pre-op transitioning peacock/turkey.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

I used to put duck eggs under hens and chicken eggs under the ducks. That sure caused a lot of confusion for ol' Mrs Hen when her babies took off and went swimming...

Not as much as when Mama Duck marched her kids into the lake and watched them drown.

Maybe they adopted.

Or when daddy duck slapped mama duck.
And daddy rooster tossed mama hen to the curb.

What ever happened to the hunting rule about being sure of your target?
