Black pheasant !

[geo351]

Went to the Bluffs hunt club today, dropped a beautiful black pheasant, who would you recommend to taxidermy it ??

heard good things about that place. Congrats. I took one last year and I didnt have it stuffed due to lack of funds (had a baby). Bo in Loveland does pretty good work.

You were so in grossed starring at that big black specimen of a Bird,you must of missed it!
The Bluffs it right next to CRC .
thanks again guys what a great day, took a bunch of co works that never hunted or shot clay. Now they know what the second amendment means!!

So, are melanistic pheasants exclusive to farm raised birds? I've seen a few on TV over the years but in 20 years hunting western KS I've yet to encounter one.

That's an awesome bird by the way.

That's a very cool bird, never seen anything like it. Congrats.

I shot one a few years ago but it was pretty beat up do I didn't have it mounted but if I had let it get out a little farther I definitely would of had it mounted. That one you have is nice mount that thing (bird I mean)

[liberty19]

Nice Rooster! That will make a fine looking mount. Congrats.

[sniper7]

Awesome looking bird!

[geo351]

Again thank you for the kind words !! I talked to Keith Anderson at Anderson taxidermy , done deal, most cost effective, and to be honest, the only one that asked me what I wanted and what my expectations were. 10months 100 deposit !! I am stoked :-) I will definitely post the photos up when I get him back, now I am looking for some one that can do plexiglass work so I can keep it clean and protected!!

Second Amendment isn't about shooting clays or hunting.

Looks very neat! What a heck of an opportunity!

[geo351]

We all know that but some of the folks out there have no clue! What are you doing to convert any of the non believers ?

Most of the variant birds do not do well in the wild and get killed quick.... that is why you don't see them generally in the wild population.
The really unique one I've ever seen was the "golden" not a black pheasant... seen a few of those blackies.
