Excerpt from book.....
The keeping and breeding of ornamental pheasants has
grown considerably in recent years and with it the need for a basic, yet
comprehensive, book on the subject to guide newcomers through the many aspects
of selection and management of these birds.
This volume provides answers to most questions likely to
be asked in respect of housing, feeding, general care and also on the
species themselves.
The author has been involved with pheasants for many
years and in his superb aviaries keeps and breeds many species. He
is Director General of the World Pheasant Association and has traveled
extensively throughout the world in his quest to study the many species in
their natural habitat and also to meet other enthusiasts.
Illustrated throughout with both color and black and
white photographs, this book will prove an invaluable reference work for
those planning to keep their first pheasants, while being of more than
passing interest to those who are already experienced in keeping these
beautiful birds.
