He's so elegant, too. I love the way he gracefully walks around. He even looks elegant sitting on the ground!

A meat merchant is currently leasing out the paddocks so there's cows on it already. Once we find our feet here we are hoping to put cows or possibly sheep. Still undecided. We are south of Warragul, is that where you are thinking?

Yep exactly the spot!

Good luck, it's a wonderful area.

Congrats on your new place @Hollywood, and I'm with ~Marigold~, your Peacock addition is divine, so pretty!
Your pics actually remind me of the beautiful rolling hills of Gippsland, Vic, so lush and green. 💜

We have been looking at properties for a year now, everywhere from Warragul to Yarragon, Trafalgar, Neerim South, and south of those areas. There's something very special about the hills around here, it's a very picturesque farming area. We are pretty smitten with our farm!

I read somewhere that they're from India. The previous owners originally bought eight peacocks, both males and females. The others got taken by foxes, but this one must be a real survivor as it is about 8 years old. He roosts up high in one of the pine trees overnight. They don't stray from their house to find a mate, and I'm reluctant to buy one because of the risk of foxes getting it.

Imagine how annoying that big tail would be for peacocks to drag around lol
