Looks like a hybrid between a Golden Pheasant (Chrysolophus pictus) and a Lady Amherst's Pheasant (Chrysolophus amherstiae).

You are right Alice...I haven't seen too ... At this farm have another 2 or 3 kinds of pheasants, but all were hidden... next time I took some shots !!!

What a beauty! I have been thinking I would see more pheasants on Noah this time of year, maybe yours will be a beginning.
