Details

The black-legged crested pheasant is known as Penelope obscura or Dusky-legged Guan. Most of the time they live in pairs or in groups of 6-12. They walk on branches, looking for fruits and leaves to eat. A bird's nest is built on a tree or stump with branches and leaves. The female will lay two to three eggs at a time, which are rough and white in surface. The female will dish the eggs alone.
