Breeding and Incubating Pheasant Eggs: A Comprehensive Guide

Comprehensive Guide to Breeding and Incubating Pheasant Eggs: Tips on Red Golden and Ring Neck Pheasant Breeding.. This video provides a guide for breeding and raising pheasants. The breeding season for pheasants is generally in the spring and summer, starting in March in the Northern Hemisphere. To set up a breeding pen, the environment should have plenty of brush cover, fully grown trees and shrubs, and irregular shape. The ideal male to female ratio is seven or eight hens per rooster, and a calcium source must be provided for strong eggs. Incubation methods include using an incubator, pheasant hens, or hens of other species. If using an incubator, collect eggs daily and store them in clean sand until ready to incubate. Candling the eggs with a bright light is optional but can reveal signs of healthy development or failure. The video also provides tips for incubation in a forced-draught or still air incubator. Pheasant species mentioned in the video include red golden pheasants, ring-neck pheasants, and Reeves pheasants.
