In the video clip below, you will see a wild female pheasant having a mud bath under some hedges. She then has to stop to leave space for my two hens Holly and Hazel. I have noticed that pheasants, particularly female pheasants, like to use my hens' mud baths (yes, they do have a few "self-made" baths dotted around the garden - unfortunately for me really because the mud baths become rather unsightly and messy deep little craters). My theory is that pheasants think it is a safe place to go. Wouldn't you agree?
