| Northwest Gamebirds is a family owned business that started in 1986, supplying birds to just a few AKC Field Trials. Today we are doing over 30 AKC Field Trials and Hunt Tests a year. We also do National Opens and National Amateurs on the West Coast. We are very proud of our business and what we stand for. |

Northwest Gamebirds consists of Jerry and Linda Collingham. Jerry is the main PR guy and delivery man. Jerry can talk your leg off and some have said that he has cancer of the mouth (jokingly) but he knows his business and loves to talk about it. When Jerry is not on the road he is working around the farm or going to the movies every Tuesday with Linda (wife). We call that our “Date Night”. Linda takes care of all the office work, scheduling, shipping, and making sure that Jerry is at the right place at the right time.

| We have our own breeder ducks and pheasants and are very busy from February thru November servicing dog trials, and hatching and raising birds. Northwest Gamebirds is a business that is always aware of the customer’s wants and needs and does our best to satisfy and please. |

| It has not been easy at times and as anyone knows who raises gamebirds, the industry can be cruel and unforgiving. You might have a pen full of beautiful, long-tailed rooster pheasants one minute, and the next minute the pen has caved in with snow or ice or a varmint has dug under the pen and is having birds for dinner. It seems like if it isn’t one thing it’s another. You think you're going to have a good year and the price of diesel goes up and the price of grain skyrockets. What is a game bird farm supposed to do??……Well, we just keep plugging away and eventually everything works out! |
