Post subject:  NEW MUTATION - BANDED PIED GOLDEN PHEASANT by PEACOCKS AUST

The Photos below are of a NEW MUTATION of the Golden Pheasant. This NEW Mutation has been named by Peacocks Australia as "BANDED PIED GOLDEN PHEASANT" this is a stable and proven Mutation breeding true in both Phenotype & Genotype. We currently have 14 cock birds and 11 hens all of breeding age. These birds were produced from Phase2 of our Yellow Golden Pheasant Breeds Under Development (B.U.D) Program. 50% of the banded pied's will be used to continue in the development of the Yellow Golden Pheasants the remaining 50% will be breed to establish the Banded Pied as a Mutation throughout Australian aviaries. From Phase1 to Phase2 the increase in Mutation has gone from 3 feathers on the breast to the full band you see below. As this Mutation is so prolific in dominance we anticipate by Phase4-5 we will achieve a FULL Yellow Golden Pheasant.

We currently have a number of chicks from the cock bird pictured below and his brothers/sisters that are the result of selective line breeding. We believe these chicks will have an increase in both Phenotype & Genotype of the Mutation by 50 to 80%

In light of the popularity of the Yellow Golden Pheasant topic and the number of emails we have received about Yellow Golden Pheasants we have decided to release a sneak preview of our Yellow Golden Pheasant breeding program. This is just one of many Pheasant Mutations we are working on and is a one off preview as we do not release any information or photos of any breed under development (B.U.D) until we achieve Phase8 or 9 of ANY breeding program normally, so please do not ask.

We may release the Banded Pied Golden Pheasant in limited numbers by Phase4 of the program if we have achieved 40 breeding pairs as our breeding stock.

Yes he is truly stunning and I would like to order a couple of pairs also please pa. I have noticed on the picture he is much darker gold on the crest as well, are the others the same pa? You must have an amazing knowledge of pheasants to recognize the potential of certain pairings to produce the banded pied, we are very lucky to have you on the forum. I am sure all pheasant breeders will be very excited by the news of the banded pied and that the yellow golden in now a reality

Congratulations pa

Just want to mention that banded pied is also in superb condition to a real credit to you also.

Your right Keith, I got a phone call last night from a bloke from the club asking me if I had heard the news about the new pheasant before I could tell him I had he was telling me the web address of where I could see it and surprise it was APF :lol: he said he was joining the forum today.

You’re also right about pa we are very lucky to have such a knowledgeable pheasant & peafowl breeding in this country

I have heard a rumor that australasian poultry is going to do a feature on the banded pied. Very cool if its true and good for pheasant breeders as they rarely have any mention of pheasants in the mag.
