I'm currently building a 40x40 aviary for my 4 wild ornamental ducks (mandarin pair and ring teal pair). When it gets finished, I am considering getting a pair of golden pheasants for the aviary. Can pheasants and ornamental ducks live together without too many issues?
 
They can but it isn't recommended. Pheasants have different habitat, nutritional, and spatial requirements than ducks. Usually, habitat that is good for ducks is not good at all for upland birds.
If you have a very large aviary where you can have a pond and plenty of dry landscaped area, it could in theory, work! but as I said, "not recommended".
Better to have seperate enclosures.
