Jools Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 I don't have any personal experience of this, but I would urge caution. Chickens can catch, kill and eat mice, frogs etc etc. Now I know GPs are quite a bit bigger, but ........ Maybe someone who's tried this can help??

The Dogmother Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 My bantams get on fine with the bunnies, but then our hens are quite a bit smaller and the bunnies are bigger than GPs. I would advise caution with the introduction and keep an eye on them until you can be sure that they are ok together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
