Raising Pheasants
 

Well Seeing my buddy and I are big time hunters we dont like to sit and wait for seasons to come around. We are tired of shooting traps so we have beat the system and want to start to raise Ringneck Pheasants. Once we get a land permit we can legaly hunt them anytime we want hen or rooster. So I was wondering if anybody here has raised them and can give me some tips.

Excuse me, but I think this is the wrong forum to ask about info to get animals to KILL FOR PLEASURE. :snipersm: :confused:

I dont know about rasing birds. but as long as you are hunting them for food and not just fn I donot see a problem with it.


as for breeding you could try seting up in the same way as a chicken farm.

I'd love to answer this question for you, but I'm just getting my fishing gear ready to go into the family room and catch some dinner in the reef! :razz: (Same deal isn't it?)

My dog's lookin' mighty tasty tonight.

Come on over for stirfry seahorses & jawfish, yum yum. Now if I can only find my speargun..... :rolleyes:

you have fish and seahorse big enough to eat? nice!!! Wish my tank was that big!! wait a minute... dont they raise chickens for people to..... bah never mind it not the same. they are not as cute....

As an avid hunter of 25 year I understand where you are coming from. Tho i have hunted pheasant many time I dont know enough about raising them up to be of any help. I would think doing it like free range chicken would work.

P>S> this is most likely NOT the right board for this question. most likely wont get alot of positive resolts.

Re: Raising Pheasants
 

have you checked into the rules and regulations totally? I think you need to have a specific land use class and licenses and permits up the yingyang. a friend of mine used to do it and it was a very expensive proposition. Also when you get the land you have to get it so you are so far from any road, neighbors, ect.

dude its kinda like shooting fish in a barrel isnt it.

Growing your own vegetables and Fruits for Harvest... or keeping a cow for milk and meat? Growing Brine to feed to your fish?

He's not going to domesticate, hand feed or keep them for ornamental purposes... He's keeping them for the purpose of killing and eating them...

Don't h8.. Just answer if you can help.. Back if you don't :D
