My duck(unknown/almost a year?) is snapping at my chickens(7weeks)

[Foxeh]

this is how they are right now and have been since we put them away (5/6 hours )

normally in the morning daisy will get on top of the "nesting box" and wait to be let out

lol......They are all very uncertain of each other.....If you could separate the run in half for a few days even, that would give them time to adjust to each other......Right now the Chicks look pretty stressed out by the Duck....


Cheers!

Also Muscovy Ducks can be territorial......She has been alone a long time and you introduced another species into her territory......

this is day 2 of them being together, we had a puppy fence in there but they pushed it over, tbh the chicks always sleep like that, even before they were with the duck
