Peacocks and peahens weigh 1d8+5 pounds, with males being heavier than females. They are sometimes kept as ornamental birds, or for the table, almost always allowed the freedom of the grounds of whatever estate is keeping them. Peacocks are poor flyers, and can only fly for 1d3 rounds before needing to land, but they are excellent escape artists, and can usually free themselves if kept in an enclosure. The brilliant tail feathers of male peacocks can fetch as much as 1d3 sp per bird in some markets, but their eye -like markings cause others to shy away from them. Some believe that demons, devils, or gods can watch mortals through the eye - spots of peacock feathers. In some cases, this may be true.
