I’m not into the intestines, but the dog is used to them from the hunting trips. He will make good use of them.

Yup, feed the insides to the pets. They love it! My dog eats the heads too.. weirdo!

It's easier to process them when you are mad at them. I have 2 boys that need to goto freezer camp.. and 2 turkeys.. but I'm not mad at them, so I don't have any motivation to get it done

yes a permit is required for bobwhites, ringnecks etc as far as gamebirds. but i’m planning to stick with coturnix and ornamental pheasants to avoid permit requirements for now. not exactly sure where chukars fall into it as far as indiana laws yet. if i ever have enough land to become more than a backyard hobby farmer, I may do the whole permit thing and add variety!

That's probably your best route....you never know what you might take a 'shine' to and just got to have them! If you do your covered, the permits are usually not that expensive. Also, some states require permits for ornamentals, too! Go figure that, their imports and not 'gamebirds' here in the US.
Thanks for mentioning that @R2elk , sometimes I just assume peeps know those things.

Two of my siblings batches are done!

Pair A: See why I'm nuts for this pair?! Look at these tiny fat beautiful charcoal clones!

Pair D: Friggin beats me where this rainbow came from I'm crazy about that little ginger in the middle, though.

Hearts are organs, they are not intestines.

Yep, Wyoming requires a permit for partridge, pheasant, ptarmigan and quail. They do not list any exceptions for Coturnix Quail or ornamental pheasants. Fortunately if you do not plan on giving away, selling or releasing them, the permits are free. If you want to give them or their eggs away, sell or release them, the permit is $50 a year.

Key point, if you don't sell, buy, trade, swap or release the permits free but you still have to have a permit.

while many indiana laws are open to interpretation, luckily game breeder permit requirements are pretty clear and limited to bobwhite and ringneck.

Excellent. This is why everyone must check their own state's laws because they can all have different regulations.
