Pen raised bird costs less than $5. Bird dogs and friends are worth a lot more. Let bird get up before shooting even if that means no shot or tough shot eventually. If more than two shooting at a flush make sure everyone is relatively spread out and in a straight line approaching the flush. May want to let two experienced shooters kick up first birds and watch before shooting.

as others said 2 3/4" low power shells. If you do a lot of shooting your shoulder will thank you. You will need some sort of vest to hold your shells and most have a back pouch to store birds. Most of the time you will start out with a box of shells. Some use a belt with a pouch attached large enough for a box of shells.
An orange vest/hat is highly recommended. Be prepared with plenty of water. You should be doing a lot of walking. Lightweight boots and gun are helpful.
If you have a guide with dogs the dog will bring the bird to the guide who will keep them until you get back to the truck.
