Lady Amherst's pheasant

A very close cousin to the Golden Pheasant, one that often hybridizes with them. Similar care...

Latest reviews

Pros: Easy to hatch and raise, more 'laid back' than Goldens.
Cons: None
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.
