they are both in the same pen together
for a month now and there are no signs of pecking or the pheasants don't even bother them pen size is only 20x20 with about three pine trees
and a house 4x4x4 for them to share just wondering becuase everybody says you can't mix them up but havn't seen any reason to separate them yet
just wondering what everyone thought

I also have ringneck pheasant, bobwhite, cotunix and ringneck dove together.  12'L x 12'W x 8'H.  All stay in their own territory but eat in the same dish.  Not much pecking problems.  I do have food for them always available.  Throw them grass clippings or fresh greens or bread.  Keeps them ocupied on other things besides pecking.  I don't have hundreds together just 6-10 each type.  Keep an eye for them pecking, if they start then I would separate.

Good Luck
