Instructions for the Raising of Pheasants Vermont Dept Of Fish and Game

This special re-print edition of the Vermont Dept. of Fish and Game's book "Instructions For Raising Pheasants" is a short guide to raising Ringneck Pheasants for release into the wild. Written in 1922, this classic booklet contains the basics of raising pheasants from hatching eggs to maturity. Details include how to handle hatching eggs, the use of setting hens, and the feeding and care for chicks to adulthood. Though written for those interested in participating in programs to stock Ringneck Pheasants into the wild as gamebirds, this short guide will also be of interest to those raising pheasants for a hobby or for meat. Note: This edition is a perfect facsimile of the original edition and is not set in a modern typeface. As a result, some type characters and images might suffer from slight imperfections or minor shadows in the page background.
