2C192FF6-85BA-4A85-8040-EBE072AEBF9F.jpeg I got a male red golden from a friend of mine a few months back ... i thought i had a lady amherst male but looking closer i believe they are both red goldens . My yellow golden i assume is a female or i hope anyways as the colors arent changing . I hatched the yellow and the what i perceived as a amherst out last august . Any help identifying these will be greatly appreciated

The Yellow Golden is a hen. The other 2 are Red Golden males.
Here's some pics of a juvenile Amherst male and a juvenile Red Golden x Amherst cross, which I got in the same bunch of ordered eggs.

Note: Blue/Gray legs, white Cape feathers coming in and barring on tail feathers.

Amherst male and Red Golden x Amherst male cross.
That clears up a few things ... the leg color have me convinced it wasnt a amherst but just wanted another opinion . Thanks for the info !
 
I've never seen a Red Golden x Amherst cross that had yellow legs but at the same time, doesn't mean that could be a possibility.
The reason I posted the pic of the cross is because I did notice in one of your pics, what looked like white Cape feathers and white tail feathers on one of the males? The pics weren't very clear so kinda hard to see.
