[Master Hatcher]

So over the last 2 months i have noticed this brown coming through on my yellow golden ... anyone else seen this or had it happen to them ?

Hi!

From what I can see it seems you have a female on your hands that is getting her adult feathers. Most female yellow golden pheasants tend to get darker as they get their adult plumage. Is her eye yellowish green or dark brown? I have attached a picture of an adult female

She looks like a juvenile Yellow Golden hen to me. She might get darker as she matures. Here's a couple of pics of 2 of mine. They are going through a molt right now.
