Idaho Fish and Game reports a moderate winter with one pheasant casualty from soft weather. The January sex ratio count will be limited by little snow, while crowing count routes in March will measure breeding trends as 50 to 55 roosters per 100 hens is ample safety.
The document explains using winter sex ratios to gauge cock harvest levels in pheasants, noting the one to one opening ratio and safe fall harvest ranges. It describes broad nest counts, annual checks of birds, and regulatory controls by the Fish and Game Commission to open seasons when surplus harvest is indicated and close when not.
The article discusses using irrigation and grain crops to convert the Boise to Mountain Home desert into pheasant habitat. It compares potential growth to Oregon’s Willamette Valley rebound in the 1880s after Chinese ringneck introductions, noting water, crops, and natural stocking could spur a large pheasant population without game-farm aid.
