BRISTOL People driving along Mahan Denman Road might notice more than a chicken crossing the road. Peacocks are roaming the area.
Township trustees said at their recent meeting they’ve received calls from residents who have seen peacocks running across or along the road.
Trustee Ramon French said peacocks and peafowl are classified under agriculture poultry / fowl in the Ohio Revised Code, the same as chickens and ducks, and need to be kept on their own properties by the owners.
“There have been calls of people seeing peacocks running at large and by the roads,” French said.
