Our Satyr Tragopan Pheasants
originate from the Vaughn and Knoder bloodlines.
These are large colorful
Pheasant from the mountains of India, Nepal, Tibet, etc..
Near threatened in most of
it’s range. Probably fewer than
20,000 individuals left in the wild!!
AS
with most Tragopans, Satyrs can become very tame.
They are very susceptible to germs and not very tolerant of stress.
They will have no problems handling the coldest of winters but do not do
well in hot climates. They require
lots of pen space and a somewhat specialized diet.
Breed best in pairs. Does not
breed until at least the second year. Hatched
best under setting hens. Males will
perform lots of stunning courtship displays.
