ducks and chickens togethor?

[Adil_Ali]

Hey there, i breed polish chickens, and I got ducklings a few weeks back. I’ve noticed that the ducks have no grown up and cause a huge mess , and polish hens need a dry environment, do you recommend I sell the ducks/ make them a new coop?
are ducks even suitable to keep with chickens?

cheers

They can be kept together, but ducks do create a mess, and sometimes drakes will breed the chicken hens causing problems. Separate coops/pens is a solution.
