It's the a female calico peacock, the male was being camera shy I want to get a pic of him because he is beautiful.

I plan on having mostly peacocks, and of course the yellow labs that are already in there. I just put those in to make sure that the tank was safe.

Small update, I added 2 more female labs to spread out the males aggression.
