Pheasant beak

Submitted by Mike on 01/27/2004. ( ) 65.222.30.34

Has anyone ever had the outer shell of the upper beak come off? I never realized that they had an outer shell until I accidently pulled one off last night. This is really strange, its like a toe nail, and its a cup like shell that fits over the inner beak. I have mounted countless pheasants and have never seen this. It almost looks like it could be shed from time to time. Thank god its easy to glue back on.

Yet another reason to go artificial...No to mention, less time with filling the waddles with clay...Corey Carruthers in Matooska the only way to go!
