About 25 years ago I had a large collection of ornamental pheasants, quail, partridges, doves and pigeons. Had everything from the common button quail to nicobar pigeons. 2 pair of Victoria crowned pigeons. Australian crested doves. We sold our old home to purchase a home here in western Maryland with 22 acres we purchased or current home with my bird hobby in mind it's perfect my lane is over a mile long closest neighbor is over 2 miles away. Watching this video makes me want to start building enclosures my old enclosures were 20 feet wide by 30 long 12 feet tall. I even have a large heated building with sizable winter enclosures for the species that can't handle the cold winter months. I've been looking at prices of eggs and birds online just like everything else the price has risen ALOT. Not tooting my own horn but I was good at raising crested wood partridges don't even know if there still kept in the states I'm sure they are.

It sounds the perfect place to start up again! But yes, not only birds but I expect feed costs too so it's a more expensive hobby. Still, beautiful birds though.

Build it with slide out trays so you can easily replace the substrate.

The calmest reeves i have ever seen. They are usually batshit 🤪

@BrimwoodFarm 4 ай бұрын

Perhaps as they were hatched out indoors and treated more as pets? They are pretty calm!

It's late but definitely replace the chicken netting. Fox can rip through it

Maybe if you played jungle noises 24/7 egg production would go up. It worked on my chickens here in Alaska. Problem is it draws in the ravens too. And a couple of arctic terns too who think they are fling over the equator.

IF I built an aviary I'd make it with slide out trays so you can dump the old stuff and put clean, new substrate in. As someone who has never done this before and has no experience, I'm assuming most mite/lice problems come from the stuff on the ground or at least it provides a habitat for the critters.

@BrimwoodFarm I recently got a juvenile red goldens, inspired by your video. Planning to get 2 more hens and a pair of reeves and Lady amherst. Over your years of owning them, have you've been able to tame the some bit? Or are they still as wild and skittish as they are?

@BrimwoodFarm Жыл бұрын

Sorry to hear that! I have quite a few foxes across the farm but they haven't really been interested in the pheasant runs. Could you try adding some more places for him to hide; sticks, branches etc so he feels safer? It's hard to know what's best

A SIDE QUESTION. if you are not living in site, how do you maintain the security of your farm when you are not there?

We have A LOT of cameras! Our neighbours are great too, and we have built a network of friends who also keep an eye on things. To be honest, at the moment, we're there most of the time now.

Will different types of Pheasant breed with one another if allowed or do they stick to their own kind?

@BrimwoodFarm 2 жыл бұрын

Some can definitely cross; which is why we've ended up with a Golden x Amhurst. I bought him as a golden hen ... definitely NOT that. Tragopans are a different genus so I'm not sure they can mix, though perhaps with other tragopan varieties?

Hi Geoff question from a non bird keeper so sorry if it’s a daft one. Why don’t you let the grey pheasant sit on her eggs? Surely nature does it best?

@BrimwoodFarm 2 жыл бұрын

Not a daft question at all, Chris. She didn't show any signs of sitting. Also, if we left the first clutch with her she wouldn't lay any more. So this way we get her to lay a few more eggs and make sure the ones we do have can be cared for properly.
