Ringneck Pheasant 2 Inch Round Button

The male ringneck pheasant is easily identifiable by the presence of a white ring around its neck. However, females lack the feature from which this species gets its name. At maturity, males will reach a length of 35 inches and the females average 20 inches. Ringneck pheasants are a very popular game bird in North America, but this species is actually native to China, and was imported to North America in the late 1800's. Ringneck pheasants feed on insects and grains on the ground, and these are usually plentiful in fields.
