Can I put a drake in with chickens?

[andreagran7]

Hi, I have 6 female ducks who share a large coop with 8 chickens. Can I bring in a drake? The chickens free range during the day.

Yes, but make sure to do your research first. Good luck!

You'll have to make sure that the duck isn't trying to mate your chickens. A male duck can kill a chicken.

If he has never been around Chickens he might chase and attack them too. My Ducks hate my Chickens and chase them when they get the opportunity. I keep the two species separate.

Maybe if I get a drake that's been around chickens it will be ok then?

Lol...Probably not if he wants to breed them?..Drakes have a 4 inch penis that can kill a Chicken because they Don't breed that way..
