hybrid ring-necked pheasant X chicken

this one really surprised me! When I saw it I thought...it has the tail and head of a pheasant, but it stands like a chicken! At first I thought it must be some weird pheasant mutation because I had never heard of a hybrid between a pheasant and a chicken before, but that in fact is what it is (or rather, what [i]they[/i] are, for there are two of them at Natureland). Very odd birds!
