Can chickens and pheasants,or quail live together.

[RicksKickinChicken]

i have chickens and i had an idea of raising pheasants and/or for meat is it possible to raise them together

I think the simple answer would be no because of size and nutritional needs differences. If it were me I would put the smaller quail pen inside the hen house. Pheasant might work out if they are of the same age or very carefully introduced. I will be following this to hear the experts opinions.
