Lady Amherst's pheasant (Chrysolophus amherstiae) is a bird of the order Galliformes and the family Phasianidae.

The hens are sometimes confused with Golden hens but they are bigger with blue/grey legs and bluish orbital skin. The Goldens have yellow skin and also a yellow tinge to the feathers. Lady Amherst hens also have stronger markings than the Goldens. Hybrids between the Lady Amherst and Golden can be produced and are fertile. We think it important that the true species is preserved for the future therefore at Allandoo Pheasantry we do not produce hybrids.
