Relating to the taking of unbanded pen-reared quail and pheasants
by certain landowners.
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
HB 1699 would allow the non-commercial collection or hunting of unbanded, pen-raised pheasants or quail on private property of at least 5 contiguous acres. It is also noted that nothing in the bill will authorize a person to exceed a bag limit for pheasant or quail.
Texas Action supports HB 1699 which uplifts our individual liberty and private property principles.
