So I've had these wild chickens in my orchard for a few years now. There used to be a rooster last year but some dogs killed him I think and there's been no other roosters around unless there is a type that hides and doesn't crow. Miraculously enough low and behold one of the hens has chicks. I got to thinking there have been quite a few of those Kalij pheasant around and decided to gooogle it and check: yup sure enough pheasants and chickens can and will breed.

Which ponders the question if my hens have phickens from these pheasant males what would be the result from a pheasant/ duck breeding?
