Guest traceyg Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Well as most of you know i had very sore fingers after all the pheasant egg turning .Then all the rearing nearly drove me mad . But yesterday was the first pheasant shoot . wasnt a bad shoot got 24 pheasants 1 partridge and 2 hares .But was a nice feeling to see the pheasants knowing i had reared them . . lets hope they taste as good as they look . really good to see the end result Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest WILF Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Good do Tracy, the pheasants on our shoot have no meat to them, they fly well enough but sadly not much eating on them..........our days are normally 300 bird days (Partridge in the main) The only thing with eating reared birds is when they have a crop full of pellet instead of the natural food that wild birds have.........sort of takes the shine off eating them a bit for me.

SportingShooter 0 Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Good stuff Tracey, They look fat enough anyway, and hopefully be good eating, any way your planning to cook them or just nice and simple roast? The ones here are looking very good to be fair, really taken to the wheat in the feeder this year, much better than previous years I can remember, so hopefully will have some good yellow corn fat on them, oooh tasty! A good bag to Trace, the big bags aren't always needed. SS Quote Link to post Share on other sites
