Section 147.201. General  


Latest version.
  • (a) The Commission will not exercise its powers to impose propagating permit restrictions upon the breeders of purely aviary species of pheasants, since the birds are not found in a wild state in this Commonwealth.

    (b) A propagating permit is required to cover pheasants ordinarily used forshooting and restocking purposes, including all breeds of Chinese, Japanese, Formosan and Mongolian Ringneck pheasant, the English Blackneck, Melanistic Mutant and the Versi color pheasants. Other pheasants may be propagated for commercial purposes without a propagating permit.

The provisions of this § 147.201 adopted June 19, 1987, effective July 1, 1987, 17 Pa.B. 2464.
