It's up to you! There easy to take care of but you have to be very responsible. You have to clean there coop weekly, and check there food and water and spend time with them each day.
You must look for a healthy peafowl with a full crop, but before you get one it would be best if you built a coop. A coop should be made sturdy from lumber and wire mesh. You should make the decision if you want free range peafowls or caged peafowls. Either way you still need a coop for roosting at night. If you chose to have your peafowls caged forever you need a out door cage. The out door cage should be 8 feet high and at least contain 30 square feet.
You must show that you mean nice and that you provide them with food and water. You can keep them caged for three months or more and then let them out if you want to. Just open up the cage door and let them come out. You may need to heard them out if they don't seem to notice the door's open. They are very dumb so you can help them out some times . Do not worry if they walk to far from you. I was very nervous when i let our peahen out and started to go to the forest. It's there first day out so they like to explore and scavenge for food. They might like to perch on the coop roof, you'r house roof, your car roof, or in a tree.
WARNING!!!!! your peafowls might not know to go into the coop at night. It is a pain having them "Sqauk!!!" or "Meaaaaaaa!!!" all night on you'r roof! That's what happened to our peacock! To prevent this it would be better to get a peafowl that has been trained by it's mother to go in at night.
The cost of a peafowl can be higher than $500 or as low as $30 .
At first i wanted to get chicks but than i heard it would be better to start off easy with adults. Chicks can cost as high as $100 or as low as $1. Eggs cost between free and $50. Usually the most expensive peafowls, peachicks, or eggs are green peafowls since there so rare.
