What animals is sh mean with? Are they new animals? Did you integrate them? What is she doing that is mean?

The ducks will move in this spring but these chicks will move in a few weeks from now. They are new and she is hissing and she tried to peck the chick but she pecked me instead and she has never done that to me

You’re not supposed to keep waterfowl and chickens together. Also how old is this duck?

You NEED to integrate new animals first. you need to put them in a see no touch area for abbot a week before letting her get near them. This si very important.

You can keep water fowl and chickens together. I do.

Not saying you should or shouldn't keep waterfowl and chickens together but a lot of people do so...... And the duck is gonna be 16 weeks this saturday

 

[TheDuckGuy]

Yeah I would anyway

 

[TheDuckGuy]

Yeah a lot of people do and including me soon!

It’s not a great idea. Ducks like water, chickens don’t. Ducks have a penis, chickens don’t. If a drake breeds a hen it can be deadly.
