HedgeCrawler 224 Posted January 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 Yes I hatch a few each year.Hopping to expand my collection this season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
devon flighter 421 Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 what sort of sized pens / runs do you keep them in ? ,they are always something that interested me , a guy i used to know 20 od years back had a pair of goldens but never managed to hatch any Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HedgeCrawler 224 Posted January 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 I keep mine in trios in heavily planted pens that are 10ft by 10ft with covered roofs.Although I did have the golden male free range during the day for awhile last year after breeding season but he is now back in ready for this year. Heres a few Amherst chicks from last year. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
