Description

The Golden Pheasant comes from central China where it lives in bamboo plantations and scrubland. They are easy to keep and extremely hardy, often preferring to roost out in the aviary at night. The males are brightly coloured, The females are dull brown with black markings, The poults look like females in their first year, developing their full plumage in their second year. Ornamental Pheasants need to be kept in a small Aviary or something similar so they don’t fly away, The males can be kept single as they tend to roam alone in the wild, but it is preferred to keep them in pairs or trio’s. They can be fed and do well on 50 percent layer’s or breeder’s pellets and 50 percent mixed corn, and live in a aviary at the bottom of the garden not making any more noise than a Parrot.
