The peacocks Martha Stewart cherished as pets were brutally murdered at her Katonah, New York, home, and she is mourning their loss.
The 80-year-old television star posted a message on her Instagram page on Saturday informing her followers that a bunch of her birds, including a peacock she named “Blueboy,” were eaten by a band of coyotes.
She began the post on July 23 with, “RIP precious BlueBoy,” and included a clip of the peacock spreading his magnificent feathers.
Stewart continued by describing some of the awful details surrounding the deaths of BlueBoy and the others.
‘The coyotes came in broad daylight and devoured him and five others including the magnificent White Boy,’ the New Jersey native wrote, before asking her 1.6 million Instagram fans and followers for any tips on how to deal with coyotes.
