Description
One of the most striking variants in peafowl coloring is called leucism. The white plumage is caused by a genetic defect which causes pigmentation not to transfer to the feathers. Leucism is not the same as albinism. Albinism is a genetic defect which causes an absence of melanin (but not other pigments); consequently, it is possible for an albino bird to still have some color.

We had two whites in our bunch. One was male, the other female. They were both beautiful. I'm not sure, but I posted pics here. (maybe not, I don't remember) LOL Wonderful render!
Very striking contrast - beautifully done!!!
Beautiful image my friend, I went to a garden centre the other day and they had a male peacock and all his tail feathers had been cut off he looked so strange poor thing.
It could be the peacock was just out of season. Peacocks lose their trains when not in breeding season
