Melanistic Mutant Pheasants

These originated within feral stock in Europe over 100 years ago. The males are entirely dark with a glossy green and blue shade to them. The females are greenish black. They lay small brown eggs and have an incubation period of 24-25 days. A favorite variety for release, they display a remarkable ability to survive and reproduce in the wild. Prime habitat consists of 55-70 % crop fields such as corn, soybean, or small grains. The remainder of the habitat should include some wetlands, grassland, and woodland or brushy thickets.

These birds have been available only as part of the "Sportman's Gamebird Special",
