Hello Everyone,
I have two pekin ducks that I got with my 4 chickens in May of 2011. It turned out later on that my ducks are a drake and a hen. They have been with the chickens since day one when I got them but lately the drake has started to attack one of my chickens. Its getting so bad that she is now bald on most of her back and neck.
Ive tried seperating the ducks and chickens in the coop and run but he always seems to be able to get back to her and attack her some more. Im at my wits end on what to do. I know the obvious choice is to get rid of the drake but I dont want the duck hen to be lonely.
Any advice would be appreciated.
