The peacock initially got along with the chickens before running riot on the farm, the farmer says.

A peacock had to be captured after it terrorised a 92-year-old farmer’s chickens.

Tom Walne, or Farmer Tom as he is more affectionately known across Suffolk, said the peacock appeared at his farm near Copdock on Monday.

While initially the bird was getting along with his chickens, things took a turn and the bird decided to cause mayhem and chase after the cockerels.

    Yup, I can confirm this as well: They taste like a dried up chicken that sat in the oven too long.

      They need slow wet-roasting or they’re like poultry-flavored balsa wood.

      Pigeon’s much better. So’s quail.
