Best Answer: Hi, Peafowl chicks look very similar to each other for about 20 weeks old, just before the moult starts. After this time, the males will grow different coloured feathers to the females. You can not vent sex these birds, their sex organs are to far in to their bodies to see. You wait until the feathers grow in. Peahens are darker and not nearly as flashy as the peacock, and don't have the showy tail feathers. If you still can't tell once the the feathers have grown in, or for some reason can't wait, take the bird to your vet, and have blood drawn to be sent to a company that specializes in DNA testing for birds.
