does any of our members here raise ornamental pheasants?

[Boggy Bottom Bantams]

we will be looking for several breeds of ornamental pheasants this year I hope. I can get most any of them from the Gambird Gazzette Magazine, but would prefer to give my business to fellow BYC members if possible.
Near GA would be nice, but if you by chance sell eggs or chicks, that will work for shipping, I would prefer to pick up older birds or at least have them within a short shipping distance.
Let us know if you or any of your buddies have any of the below, even if your breed isnt listed, let me know what you have, I am game for anything!
Thanks guys
Aubrey


Looking for any color of:

Tragopans
Impeyans
Peacock Pheasants
Golds, amherst, silvers or kalij
Mikados
elliots
edwards
eared (blue or white)

You get the idea!

Too bad I just sold almost all of my pheasants. I had silvers, goldens, reeves, and amhersts. I sold the goldens and reeves and am trying to sell the rest of the silvers. I think the amhersts are going to stay here with my mother so I can tell her you would be interested in eggs in the spring. I am in Washington so the eggs would have to be shipped.

 

[Boggy Bottom Bantams]

Yeah, do that!
Let me know if you have eggs on any of those that you may have left, especially the amherst!

I have impeyans,swinhoe,eliots,mikado,lewis silvers,amherst,blue eared,brown eared,black ringnecks,grey peacock and palawan peacock.I usually don't sell eggs,I'd rather sell chicks.This way your sure to get what you want.
Right now I have a breeder pair of blue eared,a 2008 pair of swinhoe ,a pair of black ringnecks and plenty of extra males and lewis silver male for sale.I also have apair of 2008 impeyans,but I think they are sold.
In N.H.,Tony.

Thanks Tony,
That's what I'm talking about,
If you dont mind, send me your prices for this coming years birds, especially if you get any palawans!!
I'd really rather by chicks any way, it's a lot safer on the pheasants, their eggs just dont tend to ship well.
PM or E-Mail me whne you have some idea on 09 birds and a price.
I am finishing up the new bantam condo/ mansion
the phesants will be next, so this years hatch would be great.
I use to have most all of these, but had to sell off years ago and have missed them ever since!
Thanks for the post!

These guys, If they are still in the birds can help you out,,Joe Bekner in Adel..Larry Smith in Moultrie and Matthew Johnson in Valdosta.....I'ts been a few years since I've talked to any of these guys but it might be worth a try...

 

[Boggy Bottom Bantams]

Wow, Thanks a lot.
Everyone I knew around here that had them has sold out or killed over themselves.
I'll look these up and give them a try too!
Thanks a lot

That maybe the case with these guys also..I'ts been at least ten years probably since I've talked to any of them..BTW did you ever know Mr Charlie Cornelious from Hahira?

 

[Boggy Bottom Bantams]

sure did!
Called him Charles.
Small world aint it?
And yeah, That's about how long it's been since I had all my waterfowl and pheasants too.
I just cant stand it any more though! LOL
