The male and the female bird of this species are different
from each other in looks. The male bird is 90-105cm in total length with tail
covering approx. 2/3 part. The bird is unmistakably identifiable by
golden-yellow crest, golden rump, bright red body, bright yellow eye, deep orange
cape, and rusty tan face, chin, throat and the sides of neck. In addition, the
upper back portion of the males is green, and the wattles and orbital skin are
yellow. The rest of the part of the back is golden-yellow in color. The male
birds look pretty much attractive also because of their beautiful plumage. The central
tail feathers have black spotted shade with tip of the tail in cinnamon buff.
The upper tail coverts are similar to that of central tail quills.
When compared to the males, female birds are less
ostentatious with dull mottled brown plumage. Female golden pheasant looks
quite similar to that of female common pheasant. Their breast and sides are
barred buff and blackish brown, and the abdomen is plain fawn. Besides this,
the females have fawn face and throat. The legs and the bills of both male and
female birds are yellow in color.
