this has probably been asked hundreds of times on the forum but does anyone know if you can keep chickens and bantams together. i currently have a light sussex, cream legbar and isa brown and wandered if a couple of bantam swould be alright with them?

any help would be much appreciated

thanks

We are only at the begining of this but have 3 hybrids and 2 pekin bantams ,we have kept them separate for living quarters ,only because the hybrids were already settled but they are now happily free ranging together.

 

I posted a similar query on here a few months ago and several people replied to say that they had both together.We got pekins because somebody told us that thery were chareacters and would stand up to the big ones a bit better but so far we have had no real problems .The bantam eggs are reallly sweet

I have a real mix from bantam to turkey and all live happily together (though the turkeys sleep separately at night).
