Very good looking Amherst.Notice there is no red at the base of the tail,just the 6 or so coming out of the tail.This is what an Amherst should look like.

thanks good pic must the bars on the tail be perfect from the beginning till the end of the the tail cause I saw in some Amherst lets say the first 6 bars are not correct bars and the rest is correct

I think you made a mistake because Amherst like this is value s is gonna rise because you don t get any more birds like this

This is a male I had years ago.He also is a good looking bird.I intended on keeping him but someone wanted him badly and I let him go.I have since picked up a F3 with no paperwork for a friend.This bird is different from any other Amherst I've seen so hopefully the seller wasn't joking.I get all the chicks from this F3 bird and plan on keeping one of his offspring.I think most of the Amherst problem arrive from the hens.Most people can't tell a red golden hen from an Amherst hen and that is what the problem is.

Hi Tony

If you mean "no red at the base of the tail" Is that at the bottom od the tail where the tail feathers start?

Right under the end of the wings on their lower back.Most Amherst now adays have red where is should be yellow.
