Rehoming 2 Drakes . They were purchases last spring before they were old enough to be sexed. We were hoping for 1 male and 1 female but ended up with 2 males. The 2 ducks have been bullying and theorizing the chickens. There is one chicken that the ducks target. They constantly bully, pin down and peck at one poor chicken to the point of feather loss. We have a separate cage set up for her to go into when she is feeling threatened, but the ducks have started to turned a few of the other chickens to also go after her chicken and the crate is no longer a "safe space." After doing some additional research, the best thing to do would be rehome the ducks for the safety of the chicken.

Located in Georgetown Texas.

:welcome Time to separate the drakes from the chickens before they injure/kill them. The drakes are now sexually mature and want to mate with the chickens. Drakes have penises - roosters do not. Drakes breeding the chicken hens is a recipe for disaster.
