Peachicks become independent at 9 to 12 months of age, when they are full grown. Before that, they will cry for their mother hoarsely, "Woe, woe!" endlessly. They may become desperate and run or fly around, searching for her. The mother will usually "kick them out on their own" when she starts laying eggs the next summer.
Bigger peafowl will attack and injure or even kill lost or motherless chicks. This may be because their crying could attract predators that would endanger the whole flock.
You can raise peachicks without a mother at all (from eggs, abandoned, or orphaned), but it's a full-time job to keep them safe, even in a cage, because EVERYTHING wants to eat them.
