A Golden Pheasant hen lays roughly 10 eggs a year, and the eggs are small and cream. Real production depends on strain, hen age, season, and daylight, so ask breeders about the laying record of their parent stock. The Golden Pheasant breed profile on this page lists egg color, size, and laying details alongside care and space notes.
The Golden Pheasant can be requested as started birds, adult birds, and breeder pairs. Started birds are feathered and closer to laying, so no brooding is needed and pickup is common. Adults are proven layers or show birds at point of lay or beyond. Breeder pairs are proven, compatible stock for starting your own breeding program. Pick the age that matches your brooding setup and how soon you want eggs or breeding stock.
The USDA NPIP state importation table (May 20, 2026) lists VS Form 9-3 as required for shipments into 44 of 50 states, and 31 states list a permit, approval number, or other entry requirement, so check your state's location page before you order. VS Form 9-3 is the NPIP report of sales that the shipping breeder completes, and some states add a permit number, a Pullorum-Typhoid or avian influenza clean-flock rule, or a health certificate. FastPoultry does not ship to Hawaii, Alaska, Puerto Rico, or the US Virgin Islands through standard requests.
