I've fed pheasants for a few years now but never seen this before. What IS this hen thinking/doing? Trying to rid itself of parasites?
Hi Victor and welcome to the forum ... very strange actions by the Pheasant, did something scare her?

Very odd victor, we have had pheasants coming for years and I have never seen them do this either?
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Hello and thanks for your reply. Best info I can Google is that it's normal behaviour in quails before they pass droppings, especially if they're constipated......?
How fascinating, amazing what info is on google!!
