The peacock is the bird with the beautiful, giant fan of bright colors. When the peacock is young, both male and female birds look alike. At about two years of age, the male grows the long beautiful tail feathers. Because of their beauty, peacocks were often pets. They live about 20 or 30 years.

The main idea of this paragraph is:

• The peacock makes a good pet.

• The peacock is known for its beauty.

• Male and female peacocks look the same.
