One of a kind

.
.
Interspecies crosses are rare but can occur. This chicken-pheasant hybrid is from a chicken father and pheasant hen. The behavior and general appearance is more pheasant-like than chicken-like. Body weight and size are much heavier and bigger than its pheasant family.

We have this hybrid from Mr Wong.
Hope one day I can develop more of this hybrid of my own.

I think we should breed more of this hybrid for sale as meat bird. Taste good like pheasant, but more juicy and meaty like chicken. Should be able to sell each bird for rm50 to 60 to restaurants.

Yup! I agree with you. In Aussie already do what u just said. 2 days back i saw the male chicken mated with pheasant hen. Just try our luck!
