I have a trio of Chinese ring necked pheasants at my grandparents house that we were going to be release(not for hunting) but the birds were kept till spring so there was enough food in the wild( we had them donated in the fall).They started laying eggs and we were collecting them to sell because they weren't going to or we didn't think they would sit but know for about 18 day give or take one of the hens is sitting and has not gotten up it is actually fairly rare of a type of game pheasants breed to sit (depending conditions and where you live) she has around 9-12 eggs how cool would it be if she hatched little ones and then she could come to my aviary and would become a pet and have 3 chinese hens and a platinum rooster,10 bobwhite quail,1 golden and 1 white coturnix quail,1 homer pigeon,3 fantail pigeons,6 komorner tubler pigeons, and 4 eurasian collared doves as friends.
