Daphne Posted January 19, 2010 Share Posted January 19, 2010 They'll be fine. Our chooks don't go anywhere near the beehive even tho sometimes I have to put their house near the hive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olly Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 Not a problem - mine have shown no interest in the bees at all, and I know quite a few beekeepers who have chickens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toots Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 I am doing a beekeeping course are the moment and the majority of people have chickens and are going to get bees Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gandalfwhitewizard Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 No problem at all we have had upto 7 hives in the garden with the chickens and the cats x 3 all walk past the entrance without getting bothered! Oh and a silly wolf who stares at them....but even he knows to stay away. I would say make sure that the flight path doesn't interfere with you. Bees and chickens seem quite happy together.
