I have just uploaded a new video of the Pheasantasiam.
It is a longer video than most of my vids showing what the aviary is made of, how it works, the plantings, feeding, inhabitants etc.
Hope it isn't to long...

Overview of the Pheasantasiam

Thanks to everyone who has watched and liked my videos!

Very nice set up and good videos. I wish we could have aviaries like yours here in Texas, but there are too many outdoor predators and weather issues.

It is a long Weekend here in New Zealand and I have just started the groundwork for my new aviary. It won't be quite as big as the Pheasantasiam, and a quite different design.
Photos / Video coming soon.

The new Aviary is to be called the 'Strawberry Patch',as it is being built for our new Galah called Strawberry.

Just wanted to say, I have been following this thread for a long time, and owning a Pheasantasium of my own has become my ultimate dream. There is always hope for someday....

My family is sick of hearing me say I want a Lady Amherst pheasant!

I have just started a new thread for the construction of my new aviary.
It is for our new Galah 'Strawberry'.

The thread can be found here: New Galah Aviary
