What foods do peacocks eat?

Answer 1

What do peacocks eat? We feed game-bird feed from our local feed mill, along with cracked corn. Wheat can also be added to their diet. Peacocks will also eat just about anything they can get their beaks into, so be sure that garbage and debris such as paper is not left in their reach. They have been known to eat the cat’s food and the dog’s food also, and while it did not do them any harm, I would not recommend it. If you are able to give them access to your yard at times in the summer, they will also eat grubs and green grass and love you for it in return! Watch your flowers though, as they will mow down a whole garden full in a very short time. Peacocks seem to be drawn to light colors also, especially white, so keep this in mind if you give them access to your yard or other open area. We had a piece of white Styrofoam insulation board, leaning along side of the barn, and they actually made a beeline right for it. We moved it out of their reach, but I am certain they would have eaten as much of it as they could if we had let them.
