My Chicken Thinks It’s A Duck...

[Duckbreeder2020]

Hi! I have a chicken who thinks it’s a duck. I have an area for my ducks to go inside if they want to but they sleep outside a lot. So, one of my chickens sleep outside with them also. The chicken also freaking waddles now. (I checked she is fine and healthy) I think she thinks she is a duck now. I don’t like this lol how can I fix it. It just hangs out with them all the time. The ducks seem now to think she is a duck also and they sleep together. Now my chicken doesn’t roost it sleeps on the floor like my ducks.

Yea. It’s confusing. It’s just annoying bc she is laying on the floor like the ducks

Is it possible she’s been bred by a duck causing her to waddle (because duck/chicken matings often end in injury or death)? Also I would not keep ducks and chickens together.
