6 Hens with 2 Drakes

[mirkys]

Unfortuantely my two pekin ducks that I have raised with my 6 chickens are turning out to be male. So I have no female duck for them. Will they start trying to mate with my chickens? They are all 4 months old right now and wondering what I should do. They all get along so great I dont want to break them up but I dont want my chickens getting hurt.

Hahaha... it's funny..... but I don't think the chickens will let them even if the drakes wanted to... and even if that happened they're not going to get hurt... butvthey might love it... but you may want to get a female duck for one of the boys... and one of them should be rehomed.... or you can exchange one or the drakes for a hen

If the drakes try to mount the chickens, it will not bode well for the hens. Ducks have a penis, but chickens don't have a vagina. You might want to get some hen ducks for those drakes.
