    Did I get stuck?

    I've raised ringnecks for years. Last fall at a flea market a guy had a bunch of young red goldens for sale. He said they were about 3 monthss old. So now,he should be about 10 months. He has red coloring on the breast, but nowhere near the striking plumage Red Golds have. Does it take...

    Red Golden Pheasant, how do I take care of him??

    Well, OK Dan, if that's what you want to do. But I think Kbell's question was more on the lines of keeping him healthy, happy, and productive.

    Well, if you want to call it nesting. LOL I think they'll just lay an egg wherever they happened to be at the time. I don't think they'll set eggs though, not in a wire pen.

    Feeding worms from compost pile

    As MississippiFarmboy says, running free they don't seem to be affected. But I also raise goats, and have them a fence. I have to worm mine monthly. A distant neighbor lets his run loose, and has NEVER wormed them. Free range birds may be the same way. They may get enough of everything they...

    Chukar Partridge

    Coonslayer, Some people do, but I bought ten in the fall of 2010. Eventually, I lost every one of them. In the meantime, I hatched 18 off the original ten, put them in a wire floored pen, and haven't lost the first one. I'm not in florida, but close. Conditions in 'Bama aren't much different.

    Red Golden Pheasant, how do I take care of him??

    Of course there are differences, since they originally come from diffrent areas of the world. The natural climate is different in each place, and for most far different from here. But unless you keep them in a climate controlled building, there's not much you can do but give them some type of...

    Red Golden Pheasant, how do I take care of him??

    Kbell, remember in the wild Pheasants don't have shelters. I see a lot of people just using barrels, doghouses- even hollow logs. Some just put cedar limbs piled up as a windbreak. Anything large enough for them to get out of the rain and/or a cold wind. I took old barrels and covered them...

    My new pair...

    Kbell, where do you get your birds? In terms of backyard chickens, I'm not that far from you, about 300 miles. Am in the process of building a pen for peafowl now. I mainly raise ducks and pheasants, but have others as well. Trying to find atrio of India Blues and Lady Amherst.

    Red Golden Pheasant, how do I take care of him??

    You did NOT get it wrong, Kbell. But have you ever read comments on youtube? Some are just rude, some are on there simply to insult others, and some seem so superior to everyone. You can research, research, research, and still the next day find something you didn't know. Besides, though I do...

    Red Golden Pheasant

    I've had ring necks for years, but just purchased my first Red Golden trio last fall. They are all late hatch, and the male shows a little bit of color. How long before he'll reach full plumage?
