Everyone is correct in there statements concerning the broken pattern of the tail and the coloration in the breast.True ladies have solid white breast feathers and barred tails.Some one in the past might have mistook a Red Golden hen as a Lady A hen or visa versa and that is why your bird shows...
A lot of times if he was a late hatch from the year prior it just takes a little time for him to catch on. Be patient he will get it figured out sooner or later. I'm going through the same thing with my crested Call Ducks now.I lost my breeder drake and have two young ones in there now.At first...
They can but it would cost you more than it's worth.You would be further off getting some locally at a swap or from a breeder.I don't know the swaps in your area but you can get on the where am I,where are you section of BYC and ask for a close one.Also check GBWF for listings on swaps in your...
Was at Waverly last weekend and talked to quite a few that are going to be there with everything from pheasants,peacocks to pot bellied pigs.You should get a good turn out.
Tony,
I always keep all my extra males I don't have mates for in what I call a Bachelor pen.I curently have that pen with 6 Red Golden,4 Yellow Golden,a Silver and Darkthroat Golden,2 Amherst,2 Swinehoe,4 Ringneck colors and a Silver males.All get along pretty good once in a while you'll get a...
Nice looking bird,Good to see someone with breeder Goldens that have Yellow legs unlike all the so called pure Red Goldens on Ebay with Amherst green legs.Keep him Pure....
Try buying some eggs of the variety you want and hatching them.There are quite a few people on here that raise pheasants and would sell you some once they get laying when it gets warmer.[if it ever does]The fun is in the hatching anyways.Just post what your looking for and someone should be able...
They are Indian Fantails,They will eat crumbles but I mix scratch grains with mine,They should have no problems with flying as mine fly well.Usually make great parents.
If your looking for a pheasant breed that might actually stick around free range, might I suggest Silvers.I have extras that free range and are somewhat tame unlike Goldens.If my Goldens are given the chance they are gone rarely to be seen again as yours would be also.And please take the advice...
Peewee,
There not pure Yellows,there either light colored Cinnamons or crosses,maybe Salmons?I have some splash Golden chicks that look like your second pic.All you can do is wait and see what you come up with when they get a little older.Also don't get discouraged on sexing yours the ones in...

Wow,I don't know how bad I want to get involved in a transaction with that many rules and stipulations.Nice looking birds but more hens,could use the crossbred male though.Thanks again for looking.Did you find out anything from NH?
Patrick
Thats what I'm looking for.The stork marked ones would even do.Doesn't do me any good having hens and no cockbirds.Thanks a bunch for looking into this.
