It is believed that residents of the less populated areas of Java capture and breed Green Junglefowl with their own domestic fowl. Green Junglefowl are much more delicate compared to the other Junglefowl species. They are not very winter hardy and may require heat during freezing temperatures. They do not require extremely large aviaries, but plenty of cover or plants should be placed to keep the birds comfortable. Hens may use nesting boxes to lay her clutch.
Chicks have the tendacy to be difficult eaters.
Golden Pheasant or small bantam chicks are often placed with the Green Junglefowl chicks to help teach them to eat. Mealworms are also needed, fed at least three times a day during the first few days.
