Pheasants are located all over the world and have a variety of colors. There’s everything from the white-eared pheasant to the reddish colored Blood pheasant, and everything else in between. The habitat appears to be the biggest element in the species success. In some locations the bird thrives and others it will not. Larger predators like hungry wild cats love the flavor of pheasant meat in their normal diet.

Pheasant farms offer hunting, but they also protect the species from extinction. The farms will raise the young birds till they are big enough to release into the habitat, insuring a strong population for hunting.

A good bird dog will help you find, scare, and retrieve your bird after a successful hunt. Labrador retrievers are the most sought after dogs for hunting pheasant. Some hunters prefer pointers for flushing out and locating shot birds.

Expect to find birds around water during the hotter season. They enjoy ponds, creeks, streams, faucets, irrigation areas as well as pumps. Just like fishing and other hunts you can expect great hunting early in the morning or late in the afternoon. The morning seems to the best time to hunt as pheasant tend to be feeding in the open fields.

It is always a good practice to wait for the birds to settle back down. When you and the dogs arrive they will retreat and hide and come back out after things calm back down. Always looks for signs of crowing and tracks to make sure you have pheasant in the area. On pheasant farms, this is not a concern as many of the birds have been released within hours of your arrival.
