Saw this bird in the backyard just a few minutes ago. She let e get within 10 feet so I'm thinking she might be hurt. I live less than a mile from Upland Bird Country and heard shooting yesterday, so she must be a survivor. LOL

Very cool. Hope it is okay, or you get a meal out of it.

I was just looking at the Upland Bird Country website and they charge $285 for a 10 bird, 4 hour Chukar hunt. That's a $28 bird. LOL

I once had a friend that "Saved" a wounded morning dove. It survived another 22 years. You may want to dig a little deeper to see what your getting into before you catch it. LOL
They make ammo specifically for hunting for a reason!

Definitely a Chukar and they are good eating too. To me they taste like something between a pheasant and a chicken.

A good tasting bird, but I would want more than one.

Pen raised but they seem to thrive. My Son had one that nested in his companies workshop near Haltom road and 820 a few months ago. No idea where it came from.
