Mine brings me a baby pheasant grouse partridge. I believe I’ve trained him well, haha.

Except this is not a happy tale. Hubby accidently killed the mama with the haybine (he feels so awful) and before he was even out of the tractor, its nest-mates were taken by the circling hawks. He’s still not sure how he managed to catch this one, but catch it he did. Now this little fella is all alone in the world. I have it in my small plastic brooder in the warmest room in the house with chick starter and water with Poul-Vite to help combat stress. Also added a rolled up washcloth for it to snuggle into. Not sure what else I should do? It starts cheeping like crazy every time I leave the room. HELP?!!
