Ringneck Pheasants compared to White Pheasants

[FiveMoreMiles]

Do the white Pheasants have the same temperament as Ring necks?
Or have the whites had some of there aggressive and flighty tendencies breed out of them?

in my limited experience with alaska snows, they seem to be even more agressive.

I don't yet have pheasants but in my experience across every other species I've kept, it's the strain and how the most recent ancestors were kept, fed, handled and socialized that makes it tame, wild, friendly, aloof, aggressive and all the other variations people often attribute solely to breed. I blame the breeder, not the breed: if I've kept an animal type for 5 generations and haven't worked out all the behaviour problems with that family line, it's my fault, I'm doing something wrong. My two cents anyway...

I have 30 Jumbo White Ring neck eggs in the incubator I want to know if the breeders have culled the agressive birds or not.
