About the Lady Amherst Pheasant (Chrysolophus amherstiae)

The Lady Amherst's Pheasant is an exotic pheasant species native to the dense, dark, forested areas of southwestern China and Myanmar (though they have been introduced to various locations like Bedfordshire, England as well). The female Lady Amherst's feathering is a striped tan and brown in color, while the male is black with a white belly and black and white speckled plumage, topped off with a red crown on its head. The male can also "fan" his feathering, which is useful in intimidating predators or showing off to the opposite sex. The Golden Pheasant is a very colorful bird, identified partly by the yellow crest at the top of its head and unique orange and black striped 'hood.' They can grow to nearly 6 lbs with an overall length of 30 inches or more. Males often display bright colors to attract their mates, while the females most often exhibit muted and camouflaged colors to help them hide from predators and better protect their young. Their diets consist mostly of plants and grains with some invertebrates mixed in. ​
