IT'S THE MATING TIME OF YEAR FOR PEACOCKS The males will each find their favorite spot in the hood where daily they will strut and preen, attempting to impress the females. The ladies are picky and will choose mating partners that have the most spectacular and colorful plumage in order to produce the healthiest offspring.

ANIMAL WATERING TANKS: We have maybe 20 fountains at The Mermaid made out of these tanks in all different diameters and shapes. Most of them are 24 inches tall or deep. I find that Hastings are far far better quality than Behrens. You can get these in Agoura at. They come in real handy. You can use them as planters, hot tubs, etc., etc..
