Their female counterparts, peahens, don’t possess the brightly colored iridescent plumage typically associated with peacocks, and instead sport gray or brown feathers. Some cultures also breed peafowls with white plumage that may or may not have coloration on the rest of their bodies.
A peacock displays its brightly colored feathers to impress and court peahens as well as to scare off potential predators. The colorful “eye” patterns in the feathers also make them popular symbols and decorations among fortune-tellers and royalty.
While the male variety is more commonly recognized, all peafowl have identical statistics. A peacock is 3-1/2 feet tall and weighs about 10 pounds.Creatures in "Familiar" CategorySource Pathfinder RPG Bestiary pg. 131 Presented here are the base animal statistics for all of the most commonly used familiars—of course, these statistics can also be used for normal animals as well.
