Best Answer

Male Pheasants puff up as a display during courtship while a female pheasant may puff up during the eggs incubation period when it does not lay any eggs but sits on a hatch of eggs. This is a natural phenomenon in all fowls and most birds.

Why does a female pheasant puff up?

A pheasant will puff up (as will most birds) when it gets cold. When a pheasant puffs up, it traps air between it's feathers and body, which acts as insulation to keep the bird warm. It may also be an indication the bird is not feeling well. When birds get sick, they feel like they are cold, even if the weather is warm.
