how are you?
Speaker 6 (02:06):
I'm good?
Speaker 3 (02:07):
How are you good? I can't find my prep on you.
So while I do that, can you just do something
to entertain this, like do you do tap? Or you
got a song you can sing or something?
Speaker 6 (02:19):
I am pretty talentless.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
Okay, you got about thirty seconds to kill Just you know,
if you could recite the prologue in Middle English to
the Canterbury Tales or just anything, be good.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
You have to fill time. We're almost there. It's spreading out.
Speaker 6 (02:45):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
You hadn't thought about your your skill set. If thrown
on stage before. Had you A listener sent me a link,
knowing that I like peacock to the Strutting Peacock Ranch,
And I went there and it said as follows well.
(03:07):
It began with Phyllis, the mom of our family. She's
always had an awesome love for peacocks. My mother loves peacocks,
by the way, but never imagined that she might one
day own a y. We'd always been city slickers living
in Kingwood, Texas, a suburb of Houston. Somehow someway the
entire family, Phyllis the mom, Michael the dad, Kyle the son,
and Kim the daughter that's her decided that it would
make for a better life if all of us moved
(03:29):
to the country. My goodness, have we ever been more
right about something. We ended up in Waller, which is
only about an hour northwest of Houston, but so very different.
Life is amazing. Everything moves to slower pace and everyone
is so nice to each other. Then one day Phyllis
came up came upon a listing of a pair of
India blue pea fowl that someone nearby needed to rehome.
(03:50):
That was all it took. That was the beginning of it.
Speaker 6 (03:52):
All.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Less than a year later, we had a flock of
fifty p fowl, nineteen different colors and patterns, and we're
loving life. It really is true that each one has
its own unique personality in quirks. It's so amazing. We
love our p foul like they're our own children. So
in order to obtain some, you do have to talk
with us a bit first. So you sell these these
(04:14):
peacocks and pea heads.
Speaker 6 (04:16):
We do, yes, we have.
Speaker 7 (04:19):
I believe it's twenty seven different varieties, and they are
unlike the stereotype that people think about them just being
louder of them, doxious. They have unique personalities. They're very emotional,
they don't like to be alone.
Speaker 6 (04:38):
They're really fascinating.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
And how much does one run my blood?
Speaker 7 (04:44):
So India Blue, the typical one that people think of
when they think of peacocks, is the cheapest, and that's
really what most people want. It depends on if you're
talking about chicks yearlings adults that are breeding age, which
(05:04):
is around two years. But an India Blue chick we
usually would sell for fifty The adults the mail about
two hundred. The p hens, which is what most people want,
is around four hundred.
Speaker 6 (05:19):
But then we have.
Speaker 7 (05:21):
A pair that is more unique called Steel and they've
only recently been developed within the last five years. And
those when we bought them as chicks, we paid twenty
five hundred for them as chicks. So it's quite a
bit of a range there, depending on till more.
Speaker 6 (05:44):
Tell me hard to get?
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Tell me about those hard to get? How do they
look different?
Speaker 7 (05:50):
So the Steel that I was talking about, they have
the same kind of look as the India Blue, but
instead of a turquoise, it's more like a dark teal.
And then their train is black with dark till eyes.
That's what the the circles on their train if they're called.
Speaker 6 (06:12):
Eyes, and they're they're really beautiful.
Speaker 7 (06:17):
But they I mean, there's the India Blue, there's the white,
Cameo Indigo.
Speaker 6 (06:28):
There's there's different types.
Speaker 7 (06:31):
There's three different types of Pfel in the world, and
it's the Blues, the Java Greens, and then the Congo
which have to stay there in the Congo, so people
don't really know about them. But the blues and the
greens have way different personalities. Also, the greens are mean,
(06:51):
they are taller in statue, They strut like they know
how beautiful they are.
Speaker 6 (07:00):
They they need a lot more room.
Speaker 7 (07:02):
They don't do as well in hotter temperatures, so we
really don't like to have them here in Texas because
of the temperature. But a lot of times people will
call us and say, I got a peacock loose in
my yard.
Speaker 6 (07:14):
Will you come get it?
Speaker 7 (07:16):
That happens all the time, actually, so we end up
going and catching them and bringing them so that they'll
have a mate and be much happier.
Speaker 6 (07:26):
What type do you have?
Speaker 3 (07:29):
I don't own any peacocks. There are two peacocks who've
taken up residents in my backyard, but I maintain to
the neighborhood that I do not own any peacocks. They
are feral peacocks who landed in my backyard and for
some reason don't leave. Now there's Pete and Calvin. We
(07:54):
did name them, but they are feral. We don't own them.
And Calvin is away pouring around if I'm being completely honest,
and Pete is showing his his present every day.
Speaker 6 (08:12):
Hold on.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
Two strutting peacock ranch dot com. Kim Bailey, the proprietor
is our guest. And what do you feed your peacocks?
Speaker 7 (08:30):
Their feed during when it's not breeding season, we feed
the purina flock razor crumbles. And when it is and
breeding season, they need more calcium for the eggs, So
there's a Purina layana which helps make the eggs the
(08:51):
eggshell stronger and gives them more vitamins.
Speaker 6 (08:54):
And then we give them treats all the time. I
can tell you if.
Speaker 7 (09:00):
You ever want to make your pea fowl really happy,
especially during the summer when it's hot, they go crazy
for watermelon. So I'll go and find the guy on
the side of the road selling watermelons and load the
truck up with like twenty of them, cut them into
quarters and give all of them some and they go
crazy for it. They like berries, peanuts. You know, my
(09:25):
mom has several that will eat out of her hand
when she has peanuts.
Speaker 6 (09:29):
They love it.
Speaker 7 (09:31):
So it's the basic diet is the chicken feed, and then.
Speaker 6 (09:37):
They get treats all the time.
Speaker 7 (09:40):
When we have chicks, they.
Speaker 6 (09:42):
Love to peck on things.
Speaker 7 (09:44):
Instead, to keep them from pecking on each other, we
will give them cabbage and they love that.
Speaker 6 (09:50):
Plus is something to peck into.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
How many pecaws do you think you're selling a year?
Speaker 6 (09:58):
Oh?
Speaker 7 (10:00):
Sucking the chicks, earlings and adults probably probably one hundred,
one hundred and fifty something like that.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
So you couldn't survive off the Cela peacocks because you're
spending that on food.
Speaker 6 (10:18):
No, well, it depends. There are the big breeders.
Speaker 7 (10:25):
That are the ones that do the genetics where they
create new colors and things, and they travel across the
country going too, like swap meets and things, and.
Speaker 6 (10:38):
They do.
Speaker 7 (10:39):
But as for us, we've all retired and my husband
was a Houston firefighter. He retired for us to move
out to the country. And my dad is.
Speaker 6 (10:50):
Actually still working.
Speaker 7 (10:52):
He's he's a controller for an air conditioning company, so
he still has that income. But the rest of us
are retired and just do this, you know, mostly for
the fun of it. We don't just we're not the
big breeders where we just try to get them, you know,
throwing out chicks all the time and selling them. We
(11:14):
literally interview people before we allow them to take our birds.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
Know they're wrong with that. It's your passion. Do you
have other uh.
Speaker 7 (11:21):
Yeah, livestock, No, No, just start dog's barn, cat and
our pea fowl.
Speaker 6 (11:29):
That's it.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
Your dogs, don't bother the peacocks and not at all.
Speaker 7 (11:34):
No, and the cat is kind of become their best friend.
He just roams around with them and they will.
Speaker 6 (11:43):
Display for him. Like you were talking about.
Speaker 7 (11:46):
From the names that you gave, I assume it's two
peacocks that yes, are the neighborhood roamers.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
I find peacocks to be beautiful, pea hens to be
rather ugly. They're not well nobody. When people think of
p fowl, they're thinking of peacocks because, as you know,
as with some other communities, it is the male who
attracts the female and so you know, just as with
(12:14):
thinals and blue jays. And I'm telling no about the arc,
but you know more than I do. What have you
enjoyed about having peacocks that people might not know?
Speaker 7 (12:29):
Like I said, the most people think of them as
loud obnoxious constantly, you know, making the loud noises that
would annoy you.
Speaker 6 (12:38):
But that's not true at all. Really.
Speaker 7 (12:41):
The only time that they will get loud is if
there's some type of predator, which that's a big thing
trying to keep raccoons out of the cages.
Speaker 6 (12:52):
Oh my gosh, they're ruthless, but they're.
Speaker 7 (12:56):
They're really quiet all the time, unless you know when
we're feeding them. We start at one end and moved
to the other end slowly, and when the ones on
the other end know that we're starting to feed the
ones on the opposite end, they kind of, you know,
try to get us to kick it up and they'll
start making noise. But they're very quiet.
Speaker 6 (13:18):
They're very sweet.
Speaker 7 (13:20):
The most surprising thing to us when we first started
having them was how emotional they are.
Speaker 6 (13:28):
They don't like to be without.
Speaker 7 (13:29):
A mate, and you see such a vast difference in
pa foul when rather it's a p hen by itself
or a peacock by itself, when you put them with
a mate, they are a totally different bird. They are happy,
they will strut around more, and you know, just they're
(13:54):
totally different. They're so emotional, and we've had some get
killed by predators and when.
Speaker 6 (14:02):
The I have one specific, one situation that's just.
Speaker 7 (14:06):
Burned into my mind and I'll never forget. The first
phn that we had passed away when I tried to
go into their pen. They were Samson and Delilah.
Speaker 6 (14:16):
He would not let me near her.
Speaker 7 (14:18):
He was displaying his train and he has like an
eleven foot train and he would display up and then
lay his train spread out on top of her, like
he knew she had passed.
Speaker 6 (14:32):
I knew that he could.
Speaker 7 (14:33):
Tell that, but he didn't want me to take her.
Speaker 6 (14:37):
And it was so sad.
Speaker 7 (14:39):
And people will try to just buy the males from
us because they're the more beautiful bird, and we don't
do that either. We make sure they're going to have
a mate, because they're just not happy without one. It's
a huge thing that people don't understand. And when we
(14:59):
sell the and you know, we literally do interview them
about where they're going to keep them, what they're going
to feed them, if there are predators around it. And
you know, we had a guy drive like three hours
one time to buy some and then he lets on
that he's going to click their wings and let them
roam free out on one acre. He wanted twenty of them,
(15:22):
and we're like, sorry, no, can't, can't do it. You're
talking fish in a barrel and one acre for twenty.
Speaker 6 (15:30):
It's not going to work at all. And he got
so mad he didn't want to leave.
Speaker 7 (15:35):
My Mom's like, he's not getting my birds, Kim, He's
not getting my birds.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Romon Douc King of Ding and this other.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
Guy, Michael Barry.
Speaker 8 (15:53):
So well, I just went over there. I told them, Lady,
I said, look, Micah Berry is trying to pronounce that,
and I have to turn it around on him and
pronounce it directly in a way he can understand it
(16:14):
and normally Patrick affiliate it spirituous. Thank ust good. Uh,
that's why I That's what I was trying to tell
the man.
Speaker 7 (16:28):
That was.
Speaker 4 (16:29):
But now I'm supposed to mash it. Man said, I'll
just be quiet, it'll go. It'll quit a man because oh, well,
I'm supposed to hang up on her.
Speaker 3 (16:50):
Hut and her family moved from Kingwood out to Waller.
How much land y'all have out there, Kim, We have
six and half acres. Their ranch is called Strutting Peacock Ranch.
(17:12):
Is it just you and your husband or are you
on the same property with your parents?
Speaker 7 (17:20):
We're so when it started, it was just me, my
parents and my brother, and I promised my mom that
I was not interested in getting married. I was thirty
eight years old at the time, and I finally had
a convinced We sold both of our homes, moved out there,
(17:41):
and then within a year I mean my husband. So
he and I and his sons moved right down the street,
but we're trying to get toy can be on the
same property there. My brother, he is mentally handicapped. And
that's another thing about p fowl. We had someone who
(18:05):
came to get some chicks from us, and she said
that the reason she was doing it was because she
had heard about a study that Baylor College of Medicine
had done as far as the best animals for people
with mental handicaps adults, and p fowl ended up being
in the top five and it actually turned out to
(18:28):
be really good. My brother has learned to help us
feed and water them, and he knows every single one
of their names and talks to them, sings to them.
So that's been another really good thing too for us.
Speaker 3 (18:45):
I would think anything that helps him would would be positive.
I mean, and that being one of them. Yeah, what
is your day like? What is a day at Strutting
Peacock Ranch for Kim Bailey?
Speaker 7 (19:01):
Oh, there's always something to do. Wake up and go
pick up any tree limbs that are falling. We're constantly
having a mow or weedy. We have to clean up
the enclosures and we.
Speaker 8 (19:19):
By.
Speaker 6 (19:19):
My dad is real picky on making sure the water
bowls are very clean all the time.
Speaker 7 (19:24):
He hates it when they get dirty. I mean, it's
a lot of work, but it is so rewarding and
I never get tired of it. You know, I worked
fifteen years and on the administrative side of the law
firm in Houston. That's what I was doing when.
Speaker 6 (19:41):
I decided to retire.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
And I'll take this any day, which law firm.
Speaker 6 (19:47):
It's just amazing.
Speaker 3 (19:48):
Baker Bots, Oh, you're kidding. What year did you leave?
Speaker 6 (19:52):
No, I was in.
Speaker 7 (19:55):
Oh I believe it was twenty Oh, you just missed.
Speaker 3 (20:03):
So my niece, I call him my nephew. My niece
married a young man named Harrison Reebak and he just
made partner, Okay, like just made.
Speaker 6 (20:12):
Partners when I was When I was there, I was actually.
Speaker 7 (20:18):
Right next to James Baker's office secretary. James Baker amazing man,
so amazing and so kind.
Speaker 6 (20:28):
I really loved him.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
You started there in the late nineties.
Speaker 6 (20:35):
I yeah, ninety ninety. I can't remember.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
Somewhere around there. Well. The reason I ask is my
friend Scott Roselle was managing partner about that time. He
might have just left for Center Point, but I think
he was still a managing partner.
Speaker 7 (20:52):
Okay, Yeah, I'd worked in benefits in Peril, and so
I everyone's name I constantly saw.
Speaker 3 (21:01):
Right, but.
Speaker 7 (21:03):
I don't really remember a lot of them.
Speaker 3 (21:05):
Now, why do people come and buy a peacock from you?
Did they see a picture of it? They heard they
what's the what's the number one reason they come out?
Speaker 7 (21:17):
So I would say it's pretty much half and half
as far as people starting out new and just.
Speaker 6 (21:23):
Kind of like we were, where they've always.
Speaker 7 (21:26):
Wanted one, and a lot of times it's Mother's Day
that people want them the most, getting them for their mom.
And then the other half is people that already have
them and want different colors or want to just have more,
want to introduce new colors into their breeding. It's pretty
(21:54):
half and half, but most people are just fascinated with them,
and as you can probably tell, I could just talk
about them for hours and not realize how long I've
been talking. In fact, I often have to be told.
Speaker 6 (22:07):
By my mom. Okay, I think that they can just
call if they have any more questions.
Speaker 7 (22:13):
But I'm more the taking care of them side, and
I learned from an older gentleman out in Hardened Texas
who knew pretty much everything there was to know about
pfol and he taught me how to care for them,
you know, what to look for them when they're starting
to get ill those symptoms will turn into and how
(22:38):
to treat them. So I'm kind of I'm kind of
like to take care of them side. And then my mom,
she's a realtor, but she's also like the office side
of it, you know, but she's still out there feeding
with us every day. But the second they start talking,
you know what we have available, meaning which ones my
mom is willing to part with, and the money side
(23:02):
that's for my mom. But I can tell you that
just about a month ago is the last time this happened,
where we decide to sell a pair that we have
come to Noah's our pets, and my mom literally took
off running, chasing the truck.
Speaker 3 (23:22):
You get attached. They are truly beautiful creatures. Kim Bailey

Speaker 5 (23:37):
Breaker one nine.
Speaker 3 (23:38):
This here's a rubber duck.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
You've got a.
Speaker 3 (23:40):
Copy on me, Big Van.
Speaker 2 (23:41):
Come on, boy, you have ten.
Speaker 7 (23:44):
Four for sure, for sure, black golly, it's clean clear

Speaker 3 (23:51):
Four of their big ben Yeah, we definitely got the
front door. Good buddy verse.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
They sakes alive.
Speaker 5 (23:56):
It looks like we've got us a convoy. It was
a dark of the moon on the sixth of June
and the Kenworth pulling logs cab over Pete with a
reefer on and a Jimmy hauling hoggs. We is heading
for bear On I one to oh about a mile
out of Shaky Town. I says pig pen this here's
(24:18):
a rubber duck, and I'm a bud Well.
Speaker 3 (24:19):
It's happen under down already. An autonomous trucking from launches
its service in Texas two weeks ago. The self driving
trucks will be doing regular long haul routes between Dallas
and Houston. The semis have computers and sensors that can
(24:44):
see more than four football fields in front of them.
During the four years of practice halls, the self driving
technology was able to complete over twelve hundred miles without
a human in that truck. Chris Ermson, CEO and co
founder of Aurora, says in a statement quote. We founded
(25:04):
Aurora to deliver the benefits of self driving technology safely, quickly,
and broadly. Now we are the first company to successfully
and safely operate a commercial driverless trucking service on public roads.
Riding in the backseat for our inaugural trip was an
honor of a lifetime. The Aurora driver performed perfectly and
(25:28):
it's a moment I'll never forget. There are two extremes
in this discussion. One is the person who is in
love with the idea and wants no restrictions, guardrails, safety measures, anything,
just technology, technology, technology, limitless possibility. This is the mindset
(25:53):
that led to a massive fraud. About ten years ago,
maybe he's seven, eight years ago, a guy claimed to
have done exactly this. UH it was an electric uh
autonomous driving eighteen wheeler. And when he did the pitch,
(26:17):
you know, they all they all mimic Steve Jobs. Now
you know, they come out in the black turtleneck and
they're the rock star and they got the music going.
There's a crowd of you know, Peanut gallery who act
like they're in and are also impressing. So they so
they got the truck waiting there and they take the
top off of it and it looked cool. Yeah, it's
(26:37):
a prototype. And he said, now we're gonna move the truck.
I want you to understand. One thing we're not going
to do is moving, or it's going to move on
its own. Today, we are not going to move. He
made a big deal, but that is exactly what they
did without people knowing it. It was a complete scam.
(26:58):
He raised a fortune and they never even had one.
That vehicle was rolled in there and didn't even have
an engine in it of any sort, had no means
of moving because people were so in love with the
technology that they get snookered. The flip side of that
is the person who is artificially afraid, unreasonably afraid because
(27:25):
there's not a human being there. And that person says, well,
when you've got a runaway truck, what's going to happen?
You need a person in there to make judgments. Okay,
in the one case where there is a runaway truck,
and there will be one, something will go wrong, There
may be people die. You're exactly right. But if you
(27:46):
were king looking out over your society and you were
protecting all your people, and you were to say, let's
say ten people die off autonomous self driving trucks in
a year. And let's look at the number of people
who die because because a truck driver falls asleep huge,
because a truck driver is looking in the back seat
(28:08):
for something, and because a truck driver is mad at
another truck driver or car for cutting him off, because
the truck driver's on the phone and drops it, because
a truck driver is drunk or under the influence of pills.
What if that number is three hundred, I don't know them.
I'm making something. But what if that number is three
hundred and it's ten front Do you know that some
(28:29):
people would say I don't care. Now, if your argument
is we've got a lot of people that this is
a good paying job and we'd like to keep them
in a job, that's fine. Just understand that the economics
will not bear out. Because you're other countries and other
companies in other countries. Everyone is looking for a way
(28:53):
to cut expenses. It doesn't make them bad people. The
question is how you go about it. Part of the
competition in commerce is being able to cut expenses, and
labor is a massive expense for trucking. Products come into
(29:16):
the United States at the port on a container ship.
The container ship is unloaded by longshoreman. It is then
put into trucks or it is put by rail where
it goes. But it in ninety nine point nine percent
of cases, no matter what you're hauling, you do not
(29:40):
deliver by rail to the end user. Now that was
not always the case. You deliver either immediately or by
rail to the truckers, and then the overroad truckers are
going to take it to its end destination because fixed
rail can't get to everybody and where they need to
(30:01):
be distribution centers. In all of that, that is a
massive cost in the supply chain that when they can
replace it, they're going to replace it. My friend Chance
McLean has a cyber truck. I think they're hideous. I
really do. I think it's the ugliest vehicle on the road.
(30:23):
And you got to understand, I'm a guy that thinks
the pacer looks good. I love the hornet, the pacer.
That whole body of vehicles I think are cool. I
think they're awesome. I would own one. I would love
to own one. Ever so often I get a wild
hair and I go in there, I go online, bring
a trailer or whatever. And try to find me an
old hornet or an old pacer. I think they're fantastic.
(30:48):
The cyber truck is hideous. It's the ugliest vehicle I've
ever seen in my life. Ever, not only is it ugly,
it gives me anxiety. It makes me feel tense, like
graffiti or nails on a chalkboard or sand in the car.
It triggers me. I don't like it at all. The contours,
(31:12):
that the colors, everything about it. But let me tell
you something. You get inside that thing, you get inside
that spaceship, it is something else. It's amazing. I wouldn't
own one because I don't like to draw attention to
myself when I'm off the air, because you just never
(31:33):
know there are people that don't like me. But about
three days after the full self driving, we went out
to see an officer that we brought a check for
about seventy thousand dollars to. He's the one that went
barging in there, charging in there when the woman and
her kids were being pistol whipped by the punks, and
(31:54):
he goes in there and the guy shoots him in
the leg, but they managed to get them. We were
delivering to check him out Waller and went out there,
and he said, you want me to turn it on
as well, Let's wait till we get out of town.
Three minutes into just freaking out over the fact that
it was driving itself, I was perfectly fine one. So Ramon,
here's my question for you, and y'all can email your
(32:15):
response if you'd like to participate. Would you feel safe
for driving next to a driverless eighteen wheeler or driving
next to a Honda a Cord driven by an Asian woman. Oh,
I'm married to an Asian woman. I'm allowed to say
that it's not racism. See how that works. You ought
(32:37):
to try it.
It's that time, time, time, luck and loud, So Michael
Very Show is on the air.
Speaker 2 (00:20):

Speaker 2 (00:35):
I've been over twice and squatted down three times. I'm

rubbing together. You know, I'm of a certain body mass indexes,
and I'd be chasing Marlin went to see I ain't

Dropping biscuit. Toney, I looked at like.
Speaker 2 (01:28):
A damn pigeon with some diarrhea. Ooh, I felt it
like the Pillsbury though, lady, Oh, how ignorant.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
I just need to be sprayed. I need to be
a shamed.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Michael Barry preached MOW on the subject of shame.
Speaker 3 (01:43):
People really do need to be shame.
Speaker 2 (01:45):
I know I was y'all tell you mama, and then.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
How she daring? God? Do you have a spray holes
or something?
Speaker 5 (01:53):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (01:54):
I forgot we had a gift. Her name is Kim Bailey.
Is she st Peacock Ranch? I completely forgot me. Yeah,
how are you?
Speaker 6 (02:06):
I'm good?
Speaker 3 (02:07):
How are you good? I can't find my prep on you.
So while I do that, can you just do something
to entertain this, like do you do tap? Or you
got a song you can sing or something?
Speaker 6 (02:19):
I am pretty talentless.
Speaker 3 (02:21):
Okay, you got about thirty seconds to kill Just you know,
if you could recite the prologue in Middle English to
the Canterbury Tales or just anything, be good.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (02:41):
You have to fill time. We're almost there. It's spreading out.
Speaker 6 (02:45):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
You hadn't thought about your your skill set. If thrown
on stage before. Had you A listener sent me a link,
knowing that I like peacock to the Strutting Peacock Ranch,
And I went there and it said as follows well.
(03:07):
It began with Phyllis, the mom of our family. She's
always had an awesome love for peacocks. My mother loves peacocks,
by the way, but never imagined that she might one
day own a y. We'd always been city slickers living
in Kingwood, Texas, a suburb of Houston. Somehow someway the
entire family, Phyllis the mom, Michael the dad, Kyle the son,
and Kim the daughter that's her decided that it would
make for a better life if all of us moved
(03:29):
to the country. My goodness, have we ever been more
right about something. We ended up in Waller, which is
only about an hour northwest of Houston, but so very different.
Life is amazing. Everything moves to slower pace and everyone
is so nice to each other. Then one day Phyllis
came up came upon a listing of a pair of
India blue pea fowl that someone nearby needed to rehome.
(03:50):
That was all it took. That was the beginning of it.
Speaker 6 (03:52):
All.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
Less than a year later, we had a flock of
fifty p fowl, nineteen different colors and patterns, and we're
loving life. It really is true that each one has
its own unique personality in quirks. It's so amazing. We
love our p foul like they're our own children. So
in order to obtain some, you do have to talk
with us a bit first. So you sell these these
(04:14):
peacocks and pea heads.
Speaker 6 (04:16):
We do, yes, we have.
Speaker 7 (04:19):
I believe it's twenty seven different varieties, and they are
unlike the stereotype that people think about them just being
louder of them, doxious. They have unique personalities. They're very emotional,
they don't like to be alone.
Speaker 6 (04:38):
They're really fascinating.
Speaker 3 (04:40):
And how much does one run my blood?
Speaker 7 (04:44):
So India Blue, the typical one that people think of
when they think of peacocks, is the cheapest, and that's
really what most people want. It depends on if you're
talking about chicks yearlings adults that are breeding age, which
(05:04):
is around two years. But an India Blue chick we
usually would sell for fifty The adults the mail about
two hundred. The p hens, which is what most people want,
is around four hundred.
Speaker 6 (05:19):
But then we have.
Speaker 7 (05:21):
A pair that is more unique called Steel and they've
only recently been developed within the last five years. And
those when we bought them as chicks, we paid twenty
five hundred for them as chicks. So it's quite a
bit of a range there, depending on till more.
Speaker 6 (05:44):
Tell me hard to get?
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Tell me about those hard to get? How do they
look different?
Speaker 7 (05:50):
So the Steel that I was talking about, they have
the same kind of look as the India Blue, but
instead of a turquoise, it's more like a dark teal.
And then their train is black with dark till eyes.
That's what the the circles on their train if they're called.
Speaker 6 (06:12):
Eyes, and they're they're really beautiful.
Speaker 7 (06:17):
But they I mean, there's the India Blue, there's the white,
Cameo Indigo.
Speaker 6 (06:28):
There's there's different types.
Speaker 7 (06:31):
There's three different types of Pfel in the world, and
it's the Blues, the Java Greens, and then the Congo
which have to stay there in the Congo, so people
don't really know about them. But the blues and the
greens have way different personalities. Also, the greens are mean,
(06:51):
they are taller in statue, They strut like they know
how beautiful they are.
Speaker 6 (07:00):
They they need a lot more room.
Speaker 7 (07:02):
They don't do as well in hotter temperatures, so we
really don't like to have them here in Texas because
of the temperature. But a lot of times people will
call us and say, I got a peacock loose in
my yard.
Speaker 6 (07:14):
Will you come get it?
Speaker 7 (07:16):
That happens all the time, actually, so we end up
going and catching them and bringing them so that they'll
have a mate and be much happier.
Speaker 6 (07:26):
What type do you have?
Speaker 3 (07:29):
I don't own any peacocks. There are two peacocks who've
taken up residents in my backyard, but I maintain to
the neighborhood that I do not own any peacocks. They
are feral peacocks who landed in my backyard and for
some reason don't leave. Now there's Pete and Calvin. We
(07:54):
did name them, but they are feral. We don't own them.
And Calvin is away pouring around if I'm being completely honest,
and Pete is showing his his present every day.
Speaker 6 (08:12):
Hold on.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
Two strutting peacock ranch dot com. Kim Bailey, the proprietor
is our guest. And what do you feed your peacocks?
Speaker 7 (08:30):
Their feed during when it's not breeding season, we feed
the purina flock razor crumbles. And when it is and
breeding season, they need more calcium for the eggs, So
there's a Purina layana which helps make the eggs the
(08:51):
eggshell stronger and gives them more vitamins.
Speaker 6 (08:54):
And then we give them treats all the time. I
can tell you if.
Speaker 7 (09:00):
You ever want to make your pea fowl really happy,
especially during the summer when it's hot, they go crazy
for watermelon. So I'll go and find the guy on
the side of the road selling watermelons and load the
truck up with like twenty of them, cut them into
quarters and give all of them some and they go
crazy for it. They like berries, peanuts. You know, my
(09:25):
mom has several that will eat out of her hand
when she has peanuts.
Speaker 6 (09:29):
They love it.
Speaker 7 (09:31):
So it's the basic diet is the chicken feed, and then.
Speaker 6 (09:37):
They get treats all the time.
Speaker 7 (09:40):
When we have chicks, they.
Speaker 6 (09:42):
Love to peck on things.
Speaker 7 (09:44):
Instead, to keep them from pecking on each other, we
will give them cabbage and they love that.
Speaker 6 (09:50):
Plus is something to peck into.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
How many pecaws do you think you're selling a year?
Speaker 6 (09:58):
Oh?
Speaker 7 (10:00):
Sucking the chicks, earlings and adults probably probably one hundred,
one hundred and fifty something like that.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
So you couldn't survive off the Cela peacocks because you're
spending that on food.
Speaker 6 (10:18):
No, well, it depends. There are the big breeders.
Speaker 7 (10:25):
That are the ones that do the genetics where they
create new colors and things, and they travel across the
country going too, like swap meets and things, and.
Speaker 6 (10:38):
They do.
Speaker 7 (10:39):
But as for us, we've all retired and my husband
was a Houston firefighter. He retired for us to move
out to the country. And my dad is.
Speaker 6 (10:50):
Actually still working.
Speaker 7 (10:52):
He's he's a controller for an air conditioning company, so
he still has that income. But the rest of us
are retired and just do this, you know, mostly for
the fun of it. We don't just we're not the
big breeders where we just try to get them, you know,
throwing out chicks all the time and selling them. We
(11:14):
literally interview people before we allow them to take our birds.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
Know they're wrong with that. It's your passion. Do you
have other uh.
Speaker 7 (11:21):
Yeah, livestock, No, No, just start dog's barn, cat and
our pea fowl.
Speaker 6 (11:29):
That's it.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
Your dogs, don't bother the peacocks and not at all.
Speaker 7 (11:34):
No, and the cat is kind of become their best friend.
He just roams around with them and they will.
Speaker 6 (11:43):
Display for him. Like you were talking about.
Speaker 7 (11:46):
From the names that you gave, I assume it's two
peacocks that yes, are the neighborhood roamers.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
I find peacocks to be beautiful, pea hens to be
rather ugly. They're not well nobody. When people think of
p fowl, they're thinking of peacocks because, as you know,
as with some other communities, it is the male who
attracts the female and so you know, just as with
(12:14):
thinals and blue jays. And I'm telling no about the arc,
but you know more than I do. What have you
enjoyed about having peacocks that people might not know?
Speaker 7 (12:29):
Like I said, the most people think of them as
loud obnoxious constantly, you know, making the loud noises that
would annoy you.
Speaker 6 (12:38):
But that's not true at all. Really.
Speaker 7 (12:41):
The only time that they will get loud is if
there's some type of predator, which that's a big thing
trying to keep raccoons out of the cages.
Speaker 6 (12:52):
Oh my gosh, they're ruthless, but they're.
Speaker 7 (12:56):
They're really quiet all the time, unless you know when
we're feeding them. We start at one end and moved
to the other end slowly, and when the ones on
the other end know that we're starting to feed the
ones on the opposite end, they kind of, you know,
try to get us to kick it up and they'll
start making noise. But they're very quiet.
Speaker 6 (13:18):
They're very sweet.
Speaker 7 (13:20):
The most surprising thing to us when we first started
having them was how emotional they are.
Speaker 6 (13:28):
They don't like to be without.
Speaker 7 (13:29):
A mate, and you see such a vast difference in
pa foul when rather it's a p hen by itself
or a peacock by itself, when you put them with
a mate, they are a totally different bird. They are happy,
they will strut around more, and you know, just they're
(13:54):
totally different. They're so emotional, and we've had some get
killed by predators and when.
Speaker 6 (14:02):
The I have one specific, one situation that's just.
Speaker 7 (14:06):
Burned into my mind and I'll never forget. The first
phn that we had passed away when I tried to
go into their pen. They were Samson and Delilah.
Speaker 6 (14:16):
He would not let me near her.
Speaker 7 (14:18):
He was displaying his train and he has like an
eleven foot train and he would display up and then
lay his train spread out on top of her, like
he knew she had passed.
Speaker 6 (14:32):
I knew that he could.
Speaker 7 (14:33):
Tell that, but he didn't want me to take her.
Speaker 6 (14:37):
And it was so sad.
Speaker 7 (14:39):
And people will try to just buy the males from
us because they're the more beautiful bird, and we don't
do that either. We make sure they're going to have
a mate, because they're just not happy without one. It's
a huge thing that people don't understand. And when we
(14:59):
sell the and you know, we literally do interview them
about where they're going to keep them, what they're going
to feed them, if there are predators around it. And
you know, we had a guy drive like three hours
one time to buy some and then he lets on
that he's going to click their wings and let them
roam free out on one acre. He wanted twenty of them,
(15:22):
and we're like, sorry, no, can't, can't do it. You're
talking fish in a barrel and one acre for twenty.
Speaker 6 (15:30):
It's not going to work at all. And he got
so mad he didn't want to leave.
Speaker 7 (15:35):
My Mom's like, he's not getting my birds, Kim, He's
not getting my birds.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Romon Douc King of Ding and this other.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
Guy, Michael Barry.
Speaker 8 (15:53):
So well, I just went over there. I told them, Lady,
I said, look, Micah Berry is trying to pronounce that,
and I have to turn it around on him and
pronounce it directly in a way he can understand it
(16:14):
and normally Patrick affiliate it spirituous. Thank ust good. Uh,
that's why I That's what I was trying to tell
the man.
Speaker 7 (16:28):
That was.
Speaker 4 (16:29):
But now I'm supposed to mash it. Man said, I'll
just be quiet, it'll go. It'll quit a man because oh, well,
I'm supposed to hang up on her.
Speaker 3 (16:50):
Hut and her family moved from Kingwood out to Waller.
How much land y'all have out there, Kim, We have
six and half acres. Their ranch is called Strutting Peacock Ranch.
(17:12):
Is it just you and your husband or are you
on the same property with your parents?
Speaker 7 (17:20):
We're so when it started, it was just me, my
parents and my brother, and I promised my mom that
I was not interested in getting married. I was thirty
eight years old at the time, and I finally had
a convinced We sold both of our homes, moved out there,
(17:41):
and then within a year I mean my husband. So
he and I and his sons moved right down the street,
but we're trying to get toy can be on the
same property there. My brother, he is mentally handicapped. And
that's another thing about p fowl. We had someone who
(18:05):
came to get some chicks from us, and she said
that the reason she was doing it was because she
had heard about a study that Baylor College of Medicine
had done as far as the best animals for people
with mental handicaps adults, and p fowl ended up being
in the top five and it actually turned out to
(18:28):
be really good. My brother has learned to help us
feed and water them, and he knows every single one
of their names and talks to them, sings to them.
So that's been another really good thing too for us.
Speaker 3 (18:45):
I would think anything that helps him would would be positive.
I mean, and that being one of them. Yeah, what
is your day like? What is a day at Strutting
Peacock Ranch for Kim Bailey?
Speaker 7 (19:01):
Oh, there's always something to do. Wake up and go
pick up any tree limbs that are falling. We're constantly
having a mow or weedy. We have to clean up
the enclosures and we.
Speaker 8 (19:19):
By.
Speaker 6 (19:19):
My dad is real picky on making sure the water
bowls are very clean all the time.
Speaker 7 (19:24):
He hates it when they get dirty. I mean, it's
a lot of work, but it is so rewarding and
I never get tired of it. You know, I worked
fifteen years and on the administrative side of the law
firm in Houston. That's what I was doing when.
Speaker 6 (19:41):
I decided to retire.
Speaker 3 (19:43):
And I'll take this any day, which law firm.
Speaker 6 (19:47):
It's just amazing.
Speaker 3 (19:48):
Baker Bots, Oh, you're kidding. What year did you leave?
Speaker 6 (19:52):
No, I was in.
Speaker 7 (19:55):
Oh I believe it was twenty Oh, you just missed.
Speaker 3 (20:03):
So my niece, I call him my nephew. My niece
married a young man named Harrison Reebak and he just
made partner, Okay, like just made.
Speaker 6 (20:12):
Partners when I was When I was there, I was actually.
Speaker 7 (20:18):
Right next to James Baker's office secretary. James Baker amazing man,
so amazing and so kind.
Speaker 6 (20:28):
I really loved him.
Speaker 3 (20:29):
You started there in the late nineties.
Speaker 6 (20:35):
I yeah, ninety ninety. I can't remember.
Speaker 3 (20:40):
Somewhere around there. Well. The reason I ask is my
friend Scott Roselle was managing partner about that time. He
might have just left for Center Point, but I think
he was still a managing partner.
Speaker 7 (20:52):
Okay, Yeah, I'd worked in benefits in Peril, and so
I everyone's name I constantly saw.
Speaker 3 (21:01):
Right, but.
Speaker 7 (21:03):
I don't really remember a lot of them.
Speaker 3 (21:05):
Now, why do people come and buy a peacock from you?
Did they see a picture of it? They heard they
what's the what's the number one reason they come out?
Speaker 7 (21:17):
So I would say it's pretty much half and half
as far as people starting out new and just.
Speaker 6 (21:23):
Kind of like we were, where they've always.
Speaker 7 (21:26):
Wanted one, and a lot of times it's Mother's Day
that people want them the most, getting them for their mom.
And then the other half is people that already have
them and want different colors or want to just have more,
want to introduce new colors into their breeding. It's pretty
(21:54):
half and half, but most people are just fascinated with them,
and as you can probably tell, I could just talk
about them for hours and not realize how long I've
been talking. In fact, I often have to be told.
Speaker 6 (22:07):
By my mom. Okay, I think that they can just
call if they have any more questions.
Speaker 7 (22:13):
But I'm more the taking care of them side, and
I learned from an older gentleman out in Hardened Texas
who knew pretty much everything there was to know about
pfol and he taught me how to care for them,
you know, what to look for them when they're starting
to get ill those symptoms will turn into and how
(22:38):
to treat them. So I'm kind of I'm kind of
like to take care of them side. And then my mom,
she's a realtor, but she's also like the office side
of it, you know, but she's still out there feeding
with us every day. But the second they start talking,
you know what we have available, meaning which ones my
mom is willing to part with, and the money side
(23:02):
that's for my mom. But I can tell you that
just about a month ago is the last time this happened,
where we decide to sell a pair that we have
come to Noah's our pets, and my mom literally took
off running, chasing the truck.
Speaker 3 (23:22):
You get attached. They are truly beautiful creatures. Kim Bailey

and broadly. Now we are the first company to successfully
and safely operate a commercial driverless trucking service on public roads.
Riding in the backseat for our inaugural trip was an
honor of a lifetime. The Aurora driver performed perfectly and
(25:28):
it's a moment I'll never forget. There are two extremes
in this discussion. One is the person who is in
love with the idea and wants no restrictions, guardrails, safety measures, anything,
just technology, technology, technology, limitless possibility. This is the mindset
(25:53):
that led to a massive fraud. About ten years ago,
maybe he's seven, eight years ago, a guy claimed to
have done exactly this. UH it was an electric uh
autonomous driving eighteen wheeler. And when he did the pitch,
(26:17):
you know, they all they all mimic Steve Jobs. Now
you know, they come out in the black turtleneck and
they're the rock star and they got the music going.
There's a crowd of you know, Peanut gallery who act
like they're in and are also impressing. So they so
they got the truck waiting there and they take the
top off of it and it looked cool. Yeah, it's
(26:37):
a prototype. And he said, now we're gonna move the truck.
I want you to understand. One thing we're not going
to do is moving, or it's going to move on
its own. Today, we are not going to move. He
made a big deal, but that is exactly what they
did without people knowing it. It was a complete scam.
(26:58):
He raised a fortune and they never even had one.
That vehicle was rolled in there and didn't even have
an engine in it of any sort, had no means
of moving because people were so in love with the
technology that they get snookered. The flip side of that
is the person who is artificially afraid, unreasonably afraid because
(27:25):
there's not a human being there. And that person says, well,
when you've got a runaway truck, what's going to happen?
You need a person in there to make judgments. Okay,
in the one case where there is a runaway truck,
and there will be one, something will go wrong, There
may be people die. You're exactly right. But if you
(27:46):
were king looking out over your society and you were
protecting all your people, and you were to say, let's
say ten people die off autonomous self driving trucks in
a year. And let's look at the number of people
who die because because a truck driver falls asleep huge,
because a truck driver is looking in the back seat
(28:08):
for something, and because a truck driver is mad at
another truck driver or car for cutting him off, because
the truck driver's on the phone and drops it, because
a truck driver is drunk or under the influence of pills.
What if that number is three hundred, I don't know them.
I'm making something. But what if that number is three
hundred and it's ten front Do you know that some
(28:29):
people would say I don't care. Now, if your argument
is we've got a lot of people that this is
a good paying job and we'd like to keep them
in a job, that's fine. Just understand that the economics
will not bear out. Because you're other countries and other
companies in other countries. Everyone is looking for a way
(28:53):
to cut expenses. It doesn't make them bad people. The
question is how you go about it. Part of the
competition in commerce is being able to cut expenses, and
labor is a massive expense for trucking. Products come into
(29:16):
the United States at the port on a container ship.
The container ship is unloaded by longshoreman. It is then
put into trucks or it is put by rail where
it goes. But it in ninety nine point nine percent
of cases, no matter what you're hauling, you do not
(29:40):
deliver by rail to the end user. Now that was
not always the case. You deliver either immediately or by
rail to the truckers, and then the overroad truckers are
going to take it to its end destination because fixed
rail can't get to everybody and where they need to
(30:01):
be distribution centers. In all of that, that is a
massive cost in the supply chain that when they can
replace it, they're going to replace it. My friend Chance
McLean has a cyber truck. I think they're hideous. I
really do. I think it's the ugliest vehicle on the road.
(30:23):
And you got to understand, I'm a guy that thinks
the pacer looks good. I love the hornet, the pacer.
That whole body of vehicles I think are cool. I
think they're awesome. I would own one. I would love
to own one. Ever so often I get a wild
hair and I go in there, I go online, bring
a trailer or whatever. And try to find me an
old hornet or an old pacer. I think they're fantastic.
(30:48):
The cyber truck is hideous. It's the ugliest vehicle I've
ever seen in my life. Ever, not only is it ugly,
it gives me anxiety. It makes me feel tense, like
graffiti or nails on a chalkboard or sand in the car.
It triggers me. I don't like it at all. The contours,
(31:12):
that the colors, everything about it. But let me tell
you something. You get inside that thing, you get inside
that spaceship, it is something else. It's amazing. I wouldn't
own one because I don't like to draw attention to
myself when I'm off the air, because you just never
(31:33):
know there are people that don't like me. But about
three days after the full self driving, we went out
to see an officer that we brought a check for
about seventy thousand dollars to. He's the one that went
barging in there, charging in there when the woman and
her kids were being pistol whipped by the punks, and
(31:54):
he goes in there and the guy shoots him in
the leg, but they managed to get them. We were
delivering to check him out Waller and went out there,
and he said, you want me to turn it on
as well, Let's wait till we get out of town.
Three minutes into just freaking out over the fact that
it was driving itself, I was perfectly fine one. So Ramon,
here's my question for you, and y'all can email your
(32:15):
response if you'd like to participate. Would you feel safe
for driving next to a driverless eighteen wheeler or driving
next to a Honda a Cord driven by an Asian woman. Oh,
I'm married to an Asian woman. I'm allowed to say
that it's not racism. See how that works. You ought
(32:37):
to try it.
