Egluntyne Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 You have to be careful with drakes and chickens. Their unwelcome amorous advances are not a pretty sight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't Nobody Here Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 (edited) I know there are quite a few duck keepers on here but don't know if they actually live together (the ducks and chickens I mean, not the owners ) . You could post the same question in the "ducks" section for maximum coverage? . Edit: sorry Egluntine - cross posted with you !

Rfloydian Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Hi I keep ducks and chickens together sucessfully,well no problems so far On the whole they tend to ignore each other,apart from the usual argy bargy when they are given treats.I think if you have a couple of ducks to a drake to keep him amused it should be fine. I also keep a cockerel with them, I dont know if this makes a difference but to be fair they all get on really well Good Luck!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
