So I was talking to one of my hunting buddies this evening. He told me he took his 16 year old foster boy out last weekend. This is his first season hunting and he has done really well but had not hit anything yet. Well Sunday he got his first pheasant and first quail! Obviously an exciting moment. But it became even more unique when the dog retrieved the rooster and it had only one leg. The missing leg had been missing a while, it was totally healed over just above the missing "knee". He said the good leg had a heck of a spur on it and was certainly a 2 year old bird. When they cut it open no gangrene, nothing odd.
Anyone else come across this before? I know there are a lot of ways for a rooster to loose his leg, but most I am sure would die shortly after the leg injury. What a cool tough bird.
Sorry I don't have a picture.
