> I just got home red golden pheasant eggs. I have never had these kind of birds. I was wondering if anyone had some and if you could give me some hints on raising them.

Well, until someone with more experience...both need places to hide, high protein feed, leafy vegs, diced vegs/fruits, sprouts, and occassional insects. 10 x 20 is normally a decent run for pheasants. In some species the males can really beat up on females. Space, hiding places, toys/distractions, varied diets, exercise, excellent nutrition all help reduce aggression.
We keep our pheasants away from noise, kids, road traffic and any fast movements.
