The European Ringnecked pheasant was introduced into Europe from Asia by the ancient Greeks and Romans and may have reached Britain by the 11th century. Unsuccessful attempts to introduce it to America began as early as the 1730's, but it wasn't until the 1880's, when several dozen birds from China were released in Oregon, that the species gained a foothold in North America. Our European Ringnecked Pheasant Tail Feathers are washed and come in mixed sizes [approximately 14"-24"].
