im sorry are they food?

for some maybe, but not me. I only eat ugly animals
they dont look very meaty anyway.

I've seen those in person...they are breathtaking. The most magnificent assembly of contrasting colours you can imagine. They are definitely on my wish list!

If you want to add some diversity, I know Murray McMurray hatchery used to sell them too.

They're very beautiful.. I know someone who has a pair. I like the closely related Lady Amhearst pheasants too. Simllar but strikingly different.

Those are stunning! We had natural wild pheasants back home, there was one male who would play 'chicken' with cars. Suprisingly he lasted almost a year before SOMETHING got him. Hopefully any offspring he sired didn't inherit his intelligence.

But really, who needs peac0cks when you have those, wow.
