Malaysian Green Peafowl, Pavo Muticus Muticus

 

 

 

Breeding Stocks:

The origin of animals were imported in the 90th. There was never any exact details where the animals coming from. It is expected that this is the Malay Sub-species of animals, which lives from the southern part of the Strait of Kra.
Unfortunately, the DNA study which should confirm this were stopped without success, because it was not possible to insulate the DNA does of museum samples. So it can no one say with certainty whether they are pure animals.

 

 

 

There never has been a stud book, you know not the exact degree of relationship of the animals. Also it is not possible exclude that even an animal of a different subspecies has been crossed in.
But the mistakes of the past can now we are not able to correct. So we have life with what is still there handle it very carefully.

 

 

 

 

Description of
the sub-species

Is often mistakenly used more household names of Java green peafowl. Scientifically there's only one name Pavo Muticus Muticus used for the Malay and Java green peafowl. But we have to have to separate the Malay sub-species. Typical for this subspecies are consistently bright blue shiny wing covers. Everybody who had once seen a green peafowl live knows that the light and position has a big influence to colour. Since the refraction of light in the springs is always giving little different color.
As all green peafowls, they are very long-legged animals. The green on the neck and chest in this subspecies is a golden green. Generally, you must always know when viewing the exact state of moult. Because after a long summer in the sun affects the colour and it looks more grey green.
