According to Mark Hogeweide, Gertie’s owner, Fred showed up five years ago out of nowhere. Since then, Mark has been trying to get Gertie to return Fred’s love. However, Gertie’s son Tom (the villain of the script), foiled all of Fred's attempts. Further insulting Fred’s passion, Mark said Gertie simply isn't interested in Fred, despite the peacock's ostentatious attempts to woo her. “I was concerned about Fred’s well-being,” said Mark. “He had the wrong ideas about turkeys, so I thought maybe I should get him a peahen.” According to the Canadian television, Mark is getting Fred a peahen soon and hopes he will eventually fall in love again. On a side note: the peahen is going to be named Freddie.For the birds: Farm hosts bizarre peacock-turkey love triangle https://t.co/2HERQUakwE pic.twitter.com/Qwqdt7kWPI
