I got a new 7-8 week old khaki campbell. She mixes well and is ok with my mallards and chickens, but my turkeys and guineas absolutely despise her. The campbell looks almost identical to the mallards but the turkeys somehow differentiate her and attack her instead of the other mallards. What should I do? My turkeys and guineas coexist with the mallards but for some reason they hate this one khaki campbell hen.
 
Was she introduced slowly with a look no touch approach? if not try that she is a little young to be put in with the Turkeys and Guineas without being slowly introduced to them. this works for all poultry

Maybe put most of the mallards or all of them with the KC so when you introduce them all together it's like the KC won't even be looked at as being a newbie.

Tried the no-touch approach for a day and now shes well settled in.
