In a rural area southwest of Pittsburg is a bird suffering from an identity 
crisis. Casper, a beautiful white peacock with touches of gold on his tail, has 
delusions of being a turkey. 
If he had bothered to read an encyclopedia, he would have learned that 
peacocks are actually more closely related to pheasants and quail. 
The confused bird formerly lived with Christine Bitner, her husband Eric, and 
children. 
"I'd had him about a year," Bitner said. "I run Christine's Critter Cuts, and 
anybody who knows me knows I have critters everywhere. My mother-in-law went 
on a trip with my husband, she saw some peacocks and thought I needed to have 
some."
