The Surrogator™, a patented process, is a self-contained field unit that will establish a huntable population of game birds on your property. This is NOT an adult bird release system!  The Surrogator™ functions as a “surrogate parent” by providing food, water, warmth and protection for the first 5 weeks of the bird’s life. By placing the Surrogator™ in a location where you would like to establish a huntable population of pheasant or quail, chicks raised in the unit become imprinted to that location. The bird's natural homing instinct motivates them to live and reproduce where they were raised and released.
