I bought this guy at a flea market around 6 months ago. I felt so sorry for him because he was in a too small cage with one other pheasant and both had bald spots and no tails. Who ever cut there wing absolutely butchered them because he had blood under his wings. Well he has put on weight and has feathered out great. He went threw one molt and this is him now. I have been looking threw the other posts about goldens and the pictures are beautiful.
My question is this - My boy doesn't look like some of the others that I have seen on here. He does not have all the royal blue on his back.
Do you think that he is a mix? Could it be that he is still young and has not colored up yet? Or is he a strain of golden that does not get the blue??
