The eggs were given to us by the Wildlife Federation, who hope to repopulate the pheasants in our area. When they were a day old, the WF came and collected them. This organization looks after them until the fall, when the students get to participate in their release into the wild. It's a great program!

What do you feed them?

[kathycassidy]

@muastik For the first day or so, the pheasants eat what is remaining in their egg shell. After that, a representative from the Wildlife Federation picked them up and they will be fed grain.
