Zoo rears a horned pheasant by hand.
Chick spurns foster mother.
A horned pheasant chick which is extremely independent is being reared by hand at the London zoo.
The mother pheasant refused to look after her eggs and they were put under the care of another bird who succeeded in hatching one.
But the chick refused to go to its foster mother and is now being raised on a mixture of hard-boiled egg, lettuce and seed.
It has its own trade and spends the night in the keepers room beside an electric fire.
Photo shows, the pheasant chick being fed by hand at the zoo.
