Hey everyone. So, the strangest thing just happened. We were down the allotments seeing to our hens and newly hatched chicks when a strange bird crashed into the fence?? At first we thought it was a chicken, but it doesn’t appear to have a comb - so we honestly have no clue what it is. It flew...

Same here

They get let out into that area, they spend most of their times in their pens, which don’t have a single bit of green :rolleyes::barnie

What size run would a pheasant need? We are thinking of buying a Male as well if we decide to keep her.

It’s not advisable for them to even be close to each other but the pumpkin patch where she sleeps is less than a meter away from the pen.
