These orders are manually scheduled and you will be sent a email with your ship date within 24 to 48 hours.
The Chukar Partridge is a hardy, ground-dwelling game bird with a light brown back, black-striped wings, and a bold stripe around the head. With its compact body and gamebird appearance, the Chukar looks a little like a small pheasant and is popular with hunters, gamebird farms, and customers interested in raising specialty birds.
Cackle Hatchery® offers Chukar Partridge chicks for customers who want a reliable game bird for hunting, release on game farms, meat, eggs, feathers, or hobby raising. Cackle’s product page lists Chukar Partridge for hunting, release on game farms, feathers, meat, and small yellowish-white eggs.
Chukar Partridge orders must be placed on a separate online order so the order can be processed properly. They cannot be shipped with any other poultry, fowl, or gamebirds.
Chukars have a light brown back, black-striped wings, and a distinctive dark stripe that curves around the head and throat area. Their markings give them a bold, attractive look that makes them easy to identify.
These birds are active, hardy, and well suited for customers who want a gamebird species that adapts well to captivity. They are ground-oriented birds and do not need high roosts like many chickens. Cackle’s breed facts list a roost height of 0 to 2 feet for this species.
Because they are gamebirds, customers should provide secure housing, protection from predators, proper feed, clean water, and enough space to move comfortably.
Chukar Partridges are popular among hunters and are commonly used by upland game bird enthusiasts. They may also be raised on game farms or kept by customers who enjoy ornamental and specialty poultry.
Cackle’s Game Bird Chicks for Sale category includes Chukar Partridge, Ringneck Pheasants, Pharaoh Coturnix Quail, and Ornamental Pheasants. The category page notes that Cackle’s game birds typically hatch and ship during May through August, with orders bookable as early as January.
Customers interested in gamebirds may also enjoy Cackle’s blog Bird Watching: A Look at Pheasants and Chukar, which discusses pheasants and chukar as popular seasonal gamebirds.
Chukars may be raised for meat or eggs. Their eggs are small and yellowish white, and Cackle’s breed facts list egg production as fair, with about 40 to 50 eggs per year starting in March.
Customers should not expect chicken-level egg production from this species. Instead, Chukars are best viewed as a specialty gamebird that can provide hunting, release, meat, egg, feather, or hobby value depending on the customer’s goals.
Cackle also offers Chukar Partridge Hatching Eggs for customers who want to incubate their own birds. That listing repeats the same important note that Chukar orders must be placed separately from other poultry or gamebirds.
For customers new to gamebirds, Chukar Partridges can be a good option because they adapt well to captivity. However, captive Chukars generally will not sit on eggs themselves, so customers who want to hatch eggs should plan to use an incubator.
In the wild, Chukars normally mate in pairs. In captivity, one male may mate with three or four females. This makes them manageable for customers planning a small breeding group, but good pen setup, feed, bird condition, and management still matter.
Customers planning to hatch gamebird eggs should be prepared for incubator management, brooder setup, and proper chick care after hatch.
Chukar Partridges and Ringneck Pheasants are both popular gamebirds, but they offer different experiences.
Choose Chukar if you want a smaller partridge-type gamebird that adapts well to captivity and is popular for hunting and gamebird release projects. Choose Ringneck Pheasant if you want a larger, more colorful pheasant species with strong upland gamebird recognition.
Customers comparing gamebird options can browse Cackle’s Game Bird Chicks for Sale category or read Bird Watching: A Look at Pheasants and Chukar.
Chukar Partridge orders must be placed separately from any other poultry, fowl, or gamebirds.
This is an important processing requirement. Customers should not add Chukars to an order with chickens, ducks, turkeys, guineas, pheasants, quail, or other birds. To avoid order issues, place Chukars on their own online order.
This notice should remain clear on the product page because it helps customers order correctly the first time.

Alaska
Wyoming
Puerto Rico
Hawaii
Customers in these locations should not place orders for this product. Availability can also change by season and hatch date, so customers should check the Chukar Partridge product page and Cackle’s Availability Chart before ordering.

Overall, this is a good choice for customers who want a hardy gamebird for hunting, game farms, hobby raising, meat, eggs, or ornamental interest. It is not the best choice for customers who need a broody bird that will sit on its own eggs in captivity, or for customers who want to combine Chukars with other birds on the same order.
Cackle Hatchery® sells Chukar Partridge chicks for gamebird customers. Cackle’s Chukar category page notes that Chukar chicks can ship May through July each season and describes the species as a non-native flight bird introduced to North America in the late 1800s.
