Anyone have partridge as pets?

Summer or winter, he or one of his gals is around. Sometimes he even sneaks into a pen when I am not looking.

their are a lot of different breeds of partridge, but i dont know about their relations with chickens. as long as they have a high enclosure, and lots of flying space, they should be fine.

Though not my pets, these guys sure love to dig around in my garden.

Do we all have a Chukar named Chuck?

Very beautiful photos! What are the non-chukar partridges... hungarians?​

Do you prefer one over the other? (Hun vs. chukar) I'd like to try raising some Huns next year, but I'm sure that I am out of space...​

Chucks do better in captivity. They are also way more personable. I think they lose their wildness or are less flighty as well.
