Four Different Bird Imprint Examples
 
                         A six and a half week old litter of puppies were "given" a crate of quail to
                   investigate. Within a few seconds, their instincts turned them into a "swarming
                          pack". Later, they had their individual encounters in a small, netted pen.
                         
                    
               

 
        
                                      A few months later (at four months of age) Daisy (from the litter)
                                                                       had a rooster shot over her.

                                                                     (much happened in between)

                         Here is a litter of pups being imprinted with ducks before sending them off to
                              their owners. My pro friend had been working with them a few days and
                                                  I just happened by. Photos were necessary!
