My Alabama Peacock

I love the farm in Alabama where I get my peacock feathers. There are many wonderful animals there. Sadly, the owner recently had to take a truck full of exotic birds and goats to an auction in North Carolina because the cost of feed has doubled and he can't afford to keep them. Rising food costs are likely coming for all of us. Are my peacocks canaries in the mine shaft?

Diameter of eye of feather: 1 1/4"
