| General Information | |||||

General information
Housing:
Our pheasant pens are constructed out of 6'x12'x6'
chain-link dog runns with the bottom 3' of the
runs surrounded by sheet metal for protection.
Plywood triangles are added to each of the pens
for shelter from the weather. The pens are also
fitted with bamboo and small native tree from our
area to help protect from the sun and for a fast
retreat. All pens should have a number of tree
limbs or branches for the birds to perch and use
for a little work-out.
Feeding:
We feed our birds an equal amount mixture of
standard chicken scratch, 18% poultry layer,
sunflower seeds, and rabbit pellets with an
additional 1/2 cup of scratch in the winter for
the addtional fat content. Fruit and veggies are
also part of the birds diet. When in season we use
lettuce, cucumbers, tomatoes, apples and grapes in
the feedings. They love that.
Worming and Medications:
With the help of RC HORSES AND PHEASANTRY we have
learned that Ivomec is a great de-wormer to use.
We use it twice a year. At the begianing of
February before the breeding season and late July
after the breeding season.
Tylosin is used for any infection or sick bird.
The bird is first removed and placed in a sick bay
and given a 1/4cc. of Tylosin for the next three
days once a day. It usally does the job.
We also dust our birds for lice, fleas, and mites
once a year. We like to use 7 dust. All three
mentioned above can be found at your local feed
store or at your local Vet. office.
We here at Villagrana Aviary hope we have helped
you with the information we have provided for you.
Thank you,
Villagrana Aviary
