Pheasant Stocking Expands to Jefferson and Chambers Counties
Texas Parks and Wildlife Department continues pheasant stocking along the upper Texas coast. About 2 000 ring necked pheasants will be hatched and raised at the Tyler station for release in Jefferson and Chambers Counties, with final releases by late October. Hatch takes four weeks and eight more weeks for rearing. Since 1967 Southeast Texas releases have produced birds that survived and reproduced, shaping the January 22 30 hunting season in Tagorda County.
