Oh this is a great idea.... I've been trying to come up with an economical plan. Is there anyway you would give me more info on how you built/rigged it? It looks pretty simple, but just in case. Did you have any kinks you had to work out etc?

I don't think she had begun laying yet. She didn't seem like it was a broken wing or foot either, but she eventually died. We gave her Tylan injections for a few days, but on the bottle it said not to give longer than 3 days so we stopped. The next day she was coughing up phlem and a few days...

Yes I live in E Tx! I'll try to get a pic of him this evening after I clean him up (I have to wash his beak before bed). I don't know a great deal about pheasants, but I was told they were Jones Silvers when we got them. He is still young so he's the usual brown that the females stay. He can't...

I am not an expert but I think it depends. We have 25 or so now & the young females seem to make the most noise. When I was a kid I remember them being noisy as well. When we first got these, the females (2 in particular) were very annoying. They would get close by and make a racket something...

I'm not familiar with GM, but I have issues with the traps that snap shut... and because my chicken yard is very near my house I've had problems off and on. I found an electric rat zapper on Amazon and you dont have to fool with trying to get the rat out without touching it or resetting a yucky...

@ Tony-Actually I tried to raise a dzn or so of the Jones & had one male Ringneck (because he was so colorful) but now I'm down to just the one because the others kept wandering off. For a while I was able to sneak up on them and grab them out of the bushes etc. Eventually they wandered farther...

Hi All & Thanks in advance for any replies! I have a teenage male Jones Silver that's been living in my house for a month or 2 now... he came down w/ the pox and it was too cold & dark in the garage. I've been keeping him in a medium sized dog cage and letting him sleep in the bathroom in a...

No unfortunately until recently when I realized my pheasant was sick I hadn't thought of quarentining the new guys. My father (who lives next door) is really the one who brings new birds home. I suppose at his age me telling him to quarentine the new animals is like going against the grain. He's...

I really enjoyed seeing everyones habitats & got some great ideas....I just wish I has the carpentry skills to make it happen. I have a single male pheasant (out of 10 he's the last) that is going to need his own pen when I move him back outside. He is currently recovering from the pox and my...

Thanks for all the words of Welcome! I didn't really expect anyone to reply....what a nice suprise!

I've been using Oxine AH (specific directions for animal health use on the label) and think it works wonders. I discovered it when I was searching for some way to treat a pheasant who was diagnosed with Avian Pox. The vet gave us antibiotics to prevent secondary infections etc but said that the...

I have a red female turkey that has never really been friendly. Several times a week I hand feed some bread as a snack and unlike others she doesn't get too close. I bought her at the flea market a few months ago and she's never been an aggressive eater. She is a young turkey but looks to be...

Hi all Avian owners & lovers! I've frequently visited to site, viewing pics and reading advice about our feathered babies. I joined today and wanted to introduce myself. I live in E Tx and have a yard full of animals including lots of chickens, ducks, geese, guineas, and a lone pheasant who is...
