Yes, which is to say I hunt pen raised and early release birds. Sometimes at quail plantations and other times we buy the birds and put them out and have a friend with quail dogs hunt with us. We have about seven coveys of wild birds on our place, but we've never hunted them. We are improving habitat and hoping that they begin to expand and create additional coveys.

I've run across a few "wild" coveys on our farm over the last few years while deer hunting.

They've been the first wild birds that I have seen in a long time.

We used to have enough of them back in the 1980s to hunt, but obviously things changed.

Quail hunting is a lot of fun, especially when you're toting a 28 gauge. I wish I could afford to go a lot more than I do.

jb20 - Hunt pen raised birds in Morgan County and quail plantations at different spots around Alabama. Wild birds are in Barbour County.

If they jump up while rabbit hunting then yes. Use to have a place in Athens we would rabbit hunt and had a cuvvy always busy up. Best shot I've made was a two shot double of flushed quail with a pump Mossberg.

I love upland bird hunting, but as many others have mentioned I've never been able to find any quail out in the wild down here. I would LOVE to be able to go kick around in the woods down here and have a chance at flushing a couple birds. I go to northern Vermont every fall for a couple weeks of grouse and woodcock hunting in the big woods, amazing times!

I have done a little of the pen-raised stuff and have taken very sparingly from a few wild coveys where I hunt. I really enjoy bird hunting, but I'd rather hunt something wild if I'm going to do it.

I bought a short hair puppy for my wife and son as a christmas present 2 yrs ago and he seemed to be natural at pointing so I have sorta fallen into bird hunting. I love to watch the dog work. just wondering who else around hunted trying to meet more people that hunt and where they go to hunt there release birds.

We do quail hunting, unfortunately its pen raised birds as well, though towards the end of season there are a few that make it and get to hunt them like wild birds.

We like to have the hunters shoot a lot so we put out a lot of birds.

It isn't necessary to see a good tackle...you can hear it.

I used to do a fair amount of it. But I have never shot any pen raised birds. Probably why I have given up on it in the past decade. Kids and fewer birds....I'll blame the kids.
