    Poll: do you feed pellets or crumble?

    Hi! So I was reading some threads about problems with crumble and problems with pellet feed. Personally, I think it depends on the brand. Please vote and type what feed brand you use.

    I found a Chukar

    It took some research for me to find out the beautiful bird that's hanging around my property is a Chukar Partridge. My research also told me this bird is common in western US, but NOT western Pennsylvania. That caused me concern for its survivability in our winters. Then I find there is a...

    I found a Chukar

    I found a Chukar sitting on my porch. Beautiful Bird. I want to keep him healthy and happy. Not sure if I need or want to "cage" him or let him roam. I live in a neighborhood and believe he escaped from a hunting preserve.
