Default Pheasant habitat

Hi @ all!

I'm new here and first of all I greet you all.

And now here is the thread :-)

I'm really interessted in "American-pheasant-habitats".
As you can read in my profile I'm from Europe and I breed pheasants since 98 I think.

But it wasn't the sucess I expected. So I try to get tips from everywhere what is the best habitat for pheasants.

The only pics I've seen from US-ringnecks where made in huge graslands and corn fields. Is that typical?

Hope you got some descriptions for me or pictures maybe
(and I'm sorry for the mistakes I made ;-))) )

Thx

Good cover for American Pheasent is mainly fields, like cornfields that are planted and then not picked or switchgrass which is a good grass for pheasent, One thing over here in Pennsylvania where I live with pheasents is
hawks,owls,and other preditors they are taking over.

Out west our pheasants love sagebrush, tall grass, and low bushes. They will take to a farmers field quite readily too.

Hey, thanks for replying.

I know the preditor-problem much too well because here the hawks and foxes have taken over and pheasants and rabbits are suffering from that number.

Nearly all my pheasants, I breeded the last four years have been killed by them and cars too.

I got to look for an efficient method to hunt these preditors.

Here in Idaho they tend to like to hide in sugarbeet fields, wheat fields, alfalfa fields. They also like ditch banks and there favorite, cornfields!
