Description
This White Peacock is not an albino as its eyes are blue which you cannot see in a black and white photo. It does have rare condition though.
"There are white peacocks that are white due to a condition called Leucism. Leucism is a variety of conditions that cause the partial loss of pigmentation in an animal.
Leucism can affect the skin, hair, feathers, or scales of the animal and can cause white, pale, or patchy coloration but does not affect the eyes.
White peacocks are a rare form of the blue peacock which has the genetic mutation causing Leucism. White peacocks are born yellow and turn white as they mature. "
This Peacock can be seen at Flamingo Gardens in Davie Florida
