Crested Fireback Pheasants

Abstract

In captivity these birds soon become
tame. I have never seen a cock which
would not soon come up to me and take
mealworms from my hand. Siamese Firebacks
are very strong , and with their
spurs are able to do great damage to
other birds . If allowed to run with poultry
or other pheasants, they will engage
every cock in combat , and no matter
how skillful or strong a game cock may
be , it has no chance against this active
Fireback of the Siamese wilderness.
