Albino peacocks are a rare variation of the common peacock, known for their striking white feathers and lack of pigmentation. Unlike typical peacocks, which display vibrant blues and greens, albino peacocks have a unique appearance due to a genetic mutation that affects melanin production. Their feathers can appear iridescent in sunlight, creating a beautiful shimmer. These birds are often found in captivity, as their rarity makes them less common in the wild. Albino peacocks are still part of the Pavo cristatus species, which is native to South Asia. They are known for their impressive tail feathers, which can be fanned out during courtship displays.
