1. Wide adaptability, cold resistance, and rough tolerance

In this ecological environment, it can withstand high temperatures above 30°C in summer, and can move around in the ice and snow to forage for food at minus 35°C in winter, drink icy water, and is not afraid of rain.

2. Strong gregariousness

During the breeding season, male pheasants are the core, forming a relatively stable breeding group, which moves alone. Other male pheasant groups cannot invade, otherwise they will carry out violent activities. fight.

Under natural conditions, the female pheasant incubates the eggs. After the chicks are born, the female pheasant leads the activities of the newborn chicks. When the chicks grow up, they form a group again and look for food everywhere, forming a foraging group. Groups can be large or small. Therefore, artificially bred pheasants can be suitable for large group breeding environments. However, when the density is too high, feeding is hindered and mutual pecking often occurs.

3. Timid and alert

When pheasants are looking for food, they often raise their heads and look around alertly. If there is any movement, they will flee quickly, especially if they are kept in artificial cages. , when suddenly frightened by people or animals or stimulated by intense loud noises, the pheasants will fly and bump around, resulting in bruises, head injuries, bleeding or death. During the breeding season, caged male pheasants actively attack people. Wild adult male and female pheasants often pretend to be lame or flap their wings to lure away predators in order to protect the young pheasants.

4. Small food intake and miscellaneous food habits

Pheasants have small stomach pouches and can hold less food. If they like to eat a little, they will leave and come back to eat again.

6. Special calls

Pheasants are communicating with each other and often emit sweet calls when calling each other. When suddenly frightened, it will emit one or a series of sharp "clucking" sounds. During the breeding season, male pheasants will emit a joyful and clear cry of "Ke-duo-duo" at dawn. During the hot day, Male and female pheasants do not crow or rarely crow.
