Hello! We are planning to build a bigger chicken coop this spring but are undecided on if we should let them share a run with our two Pekin ducks. Right now all of them free range and we have yet to have a problem but the ducks have only been free ranging for about a week. I’ve heard the drake could attack the hens but he’s shown no signs of that?

Does anyone have duck coops/runs and chicken coop/runs and can share a layout or pic? Space is not an issue for us but I’m just so unsure on what we should do and googling is giving me no help.

.....and he may never, but if he does mount a chicken hen his penis could cause great damage.
Best to keep them housed separately and maybe alternate days for free ranging.
