Wild-farm is a production enterprise, the success of enterprise mainly depends on the material and technical support of all technological processes. Young pheasants, grown on wild-farm and intended for release into the grounds, should not only be viable and strong, but also preserve the exterior characteristics and habits of wild relatives, which are still not fully defined.
Comparing the growth rate of pheasant forms (according to Gabuzov and Bogatyrev) with our pheasants and pheasants of KATU during 2 months of postembryogenesis, we can note the same intensity of their weight growth, except for the period from the 1st to the 5th day. At this time, Manchurian pheasants grew little bit faster than North Caucasian, KATU pheasants and hunting pheasants (their relative average daily weight gain was 2% higher) (table.4). From the results of the study, we can see that the increase of body weight in the phasers occurred equally. Thus, the absolute average daily weight gain increased continuously from 1 to 7 g and reached the maximum (7 g) for all three forms ofpheasants by 2 months of age. Changes in the relative average daily weight gain
occurred in a different way. Their greatest value was observed in early age of birds, and then decreased.
