Pheasant Permits??

[Omniskies]

In Missouri you must have a $10 permit that is good for up to 50 Ringnecks or Bobwhites. The way the warden explained it out is if it is a type of Ringneck - ornamental or not - a permit is required. Same with Bobwhites. So Jumbos, Whites, Greens, and any other subspecies in Missouri requires one. It's cheap, it's easy, and it's no big deal.

Prime example of the 'anonymous' word. Here in KY we don't need a permit for pheasants at all.

THANX SHELLEY THATS EXACTLY WHAT I MEANT. IN FLORIDA I CAN DO ANYTHING BUT RELEASE THEM WITH NO PERMITTING WHATSOEVER SO LONG AS I DO NOT HAVE 50 OR MORE AT ANY TIME. OVER 50 REQUIRES GAME FARM LICENCE THATS 50.00 A YR. WHICH I DO KEEP CURRENT AS WELL AS THE FEDERAL PERMITS FOR MIGRATORY WATERFOWL. THE BIGGEST POINT WAS EACH OF US NEEDS TO CHECK WITH OUR OWN LOCAL ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES TO BE SURE. THERE'S JUST WAY TOO MANY DIFFERENT REGULATIONS STATE BY STATE. IT WOULD BE NICE IF IT WERE A NATIONAL STANDARD INSTEAD, THEN THERE WOULDNT BE ANY DOUBTS

Yes, by ringneck I did mean any type of ringneck. By ornamental I was referring to golden, amherst, etc. The permit is also good for othere gamebirds (bobwhites, chukars). I figure it's worth the $20 every year to keep and sell any of these I want. The animal auctions in our area do require one to sell although they do not check buyers. The people running the swaps do not check for them, but I have seen a game warden at one walking around checking for them.

I Wish Ours Was Only 20 And As Easy As Illinios. Be Nice To Just Go Bopping Thru Wallyworld And Re-new Like That.

In Tennessee you have to hunt somebody down to buy a permit. I wish they sold it at the agricultural office.

Yep, pretty easy here in Illinois, just hop online, pay with credit card, and print out permit. The hardest part was trying to find exactly where on the DNR site to find them.

You can also print out a form and send it in with a check, but this of course takes longer.

Here in NC they are all the same in the game comissions eyes. From button quail up to pheasants, "game birds", no if's ands or buts. $10 a year for a game bird permit. Can't sell them to anybody that doesn't have a permit, when you do sell them you have to record their # on a bill of sale.

That being said just about every spring some of the local feed stores sell them no questions asked.
