Pheasant compound

[r49740]

I am going to start raising some pheasants and throwing them out every year. Granted I already know I wont be able to reestablish the population any with all the predators we have(coyote, fishers, coons, fox, hawks, owls, eagles.. whatever else). But will be a project I do with my aging folks for the fun and memories. Does anyone have any experience with it and have plans or a setup they found to work well for a brooding house and set up of fly pen?

Buddy of mine did this in Ontario. You need grasses that stay standing all winter, like switch.

Pheasants are closely related to chickens, so you can use plans for chicken brood houses and fly pens.
