All the pheasant species have different personalities but there are also differences between each individual bird.Īlso to keep up to date on our goings on throughout the year check out our facebook page. We have 19 species at Allandoo at the moment. We are very happy to help with any enquiries, if we can, so feel free to contact us or even come and see our birds for yourself. This is what we are trying to do to the best of our ability, so please take some time to have a look at our site and see our birds. Even spreading awareness that such beautiful birds exist is a great help to their plight. Very little is known about many of the species in the wild but we can learn a lot from watching and breeding them in captivity. We believe at Allandoo that breeding ornamental pheasants in captivity can be an important lifeline for them. Even the domestic chicken is descended from the Red Junglefowl, another pheasant. The peafowl is also a member of the pheasant family. Some of the pheasant family are very well known, such as the ringneck pheasant, bred for food and sport. This is mainly due to loss of habitat through deforestation, although, with at least some pheasant species, hunting and hybridisation also play a part. Sadly the majority of species are in decline, with some being vulnerable or endangered. Pheasants are among the worlds most colourful birds. There are around 50 species of pheasant in the wild and numerous subspecies. We include all the pheasants we have for sale on our price list as well as any special offers when we have them. If you would like to see photos of our birds and aviaries please take a look at the Gallery. All of our pheasants make wonderful aviary birds.
