Pheasants

A brace of pheasants is two - one male and one female

From my experience in pheasant hunting, they have a very good sense of smell. If you hunt with the wind, they fly early. Against the wind they kick late.

They can also read, just find a posted sign and there will many birds there.

A peacock is a male peafowl, the female being the peahen and their young being either a chick or peachick. The collective noun for a group of peafowl is a party, muster, ostentation or pride. The plural of peafowl is peafowl or peafowls, both are acceptable.

No. They may mate for a season, but not for life. If a highly desirable mate is found and it dies, they are known to commit suicideNo. They are like chickens, the peacock will often battle another peacock for a harem of peahens . They are not at all monogamous. The peahen is solely responsible for setting on, hatching and rising her peachicks which look very similar to baby turkey poults. Someone posted here that if the peacock does not find a mate he will commit suicide that is not at all true. I raise peafowl.
