Lady Amherst are one of the most widely kept pheasants, next to Golden pheasants.
They have similar traits and behaviors as Goldens, calls are similar, roosting and courtship displays are similar.
As with all pheasants, Amherst require a fairly large enclosure to ensure happy, healthy birds. Also do well in planted and well furnished enclosures.
They can withstand great changes in temperature and if given protection from wind, rain, drafts, can do very well, even in extreme cold conditions.
I rated this article 3 stars due to lack of information about the Lady Amherst in the original post.

An excellent product. Has saved many of my struggling chicks through the years. Has all the vitamins/minerals electrolytes needs to support a struggling chick.

Have used them for years. Durable galvanized construction, doesn't have the algae growth that the white plastic waterers are prone to producing. They are a bit pricey though.

I use them for my quail and pheasant chicks. Works pretty well but need refilling often. Durable, and cost effective.

Kuhl plastic leg bands are easy to use and last for the life of most birds without fading.
Only problem I have had is with their size chart not being accurate for pheasants, #6 size barely fits a ornamental pheasant. If you need one for a ring necked pheasant go up in size, # 7 to # 8.

Have used this model for several years. Is a little heavy to haul when full. Very durable.
Only draw back is it needs cleaning often to keep algae and mosquitos from breeding.

Have used several. Easy to install. Had to either make or buy "stand-offs" for some installations.

Have raised Mountains for many years. Great birds to raise and breed. Not for the first time quail raiser but with some experience can be very rewarding.

Have used many miles of this wire for fencing in cattle. Doesn't corrode or rust like steel wire.

Great product, easy to use.

Great product, works well

Great for checking ground faults, shortings on electric fencing.

Have used many of these through the years, works well if no posts are available, trees work just as well.

Have used many through the years. Cheap and easy to install.

I too bought mine on eBay. After receiving it I did the salt test calibration. Was unable to get the one I purchased, to calibrate. The adjustment screw would not turn, and was 17% off out of the package.
Would have been a great item if able to calibrate, was well made, easy to read scale but not calibrateable, is the reason I give a 1 star rating.

Golden pheasants are the gateway to ornimental pheasants. There colors an temperment make for some most enjoyable "other poultry".
They are easy to breed and raise. The most important aspect of rearing pheasants is BIOSECURITY. They should not be kept with other poultry, especially chickens. They can contract diseases from chickens that will kill them and show no sign until too late to attempt treatment.
Anyone contemplating getting pheasants, should consider Goldens as a beginners choice for entering the world of pheasantry.

Cheap waterer that will work. Drawbacks are that it is an Algae and bacteria factory. It also attracts mosquitos, which lay their eggs and produces a mosquito factory, too!
Needs to be cleaned very regularly and it's time consuming.
Other than that, it's a waterer that will get the job done.
