PHEASANT
DID YOU KNOW? Pheasant was the first type of poultry brought to market by Oka Farms. Pheasants eat grain and originate from Asia. Since snow covers the ground during our long winter months, pheasants cannot survive and reproduce in the wild. Today, therefore, breeding is almost the only way to obtain pheasant.

FEATURES
- The meat is brown, dense, yet tender at the same time.
- It is also very lean, so requires a certain amount of care when cooking.
- The meat has a very delicate taste and characteristic scent.
- It takes 20 weeks for a pheasant to achieve its mature weight of approximately 1 kg (2.2 lb), as compared to a normal chicken, which takes one-third the time. This growth pattern gives the pheasant leaner meat and finer bones.
