Additions

[Fisser11]

So I recently got 2 ducks, one pekin and one rouen. Not sure of their genders yet as they're about 2 months old. I also got 12 baby silkie chicks last Tuesday so they're a week old tomorrow. I understand they can go in the coop at about 4-6 weeks of age. My question is, how will the ducks handle the addition of the silkies since the ducks will already be over 3 months old? I've read that ducks can be territorial? Any answers to my questions will be appreciated!

You would be better off separating them at least until the silkies are fully grown.
