adding to my egg layers

can I add ducks to my coop?

I wouldn't suggest it. They're super messy and do nothing but poop in my chicken waterers, dump the waterers, and waste it. Personally I would keep them separated

! I hope that you enjoy this site as much as the rest of us do!! I have learned SOOO much from this site, and I hope that you do too! I encourage you to post some pics of your chickens. ducks when you get the chance, I LOVE to see other peoples flocks!!
Secondly,
It's all up to you...
I personally would not... not because they are going to damage your birds, but because the ducks will make a mess of your chicken house, which they keep much cleaner than the duck houses!! Ducks need a couple different things than chickens need to live a healthy, happy life. Here is a great article that covers many of these topics, and shows what you need if you are going to keep chickens and ducks together, or what you need for ducks etc.
