Rhode Island Red Chickens and Ducks

[stevenchickenandducks]

I am wondering are Rhode Island Red Chickens going to be to aggressive to mix with ducks?. What is a good age for the ducks to mix them with fully grown chickens?

Hello, I've never had ducks, but I know that RIR have an aggressive nature. But I have a site that can help: https://www.greenwoodnursery.com/chicken-and-duck-breeds-live-well-together-small-yard
(P.S if you want to get to the point they name the breeds in the 3rd real paragraph)
(P.P.S I'm not counting the little sentence at the top)
(P.P.P.S I hope this helps)

Welcome to BYC!
Both are a crap shoot...sometimes ducks and chickens get on well together.
Part is management of space.
Ducks are wet messy and chicks don't always do well in a wet environment.
Some folks have kept them together just fine,
others have found they both do better separately.
Stay flexible, have options.

Sometimes RIR are unusually aggressive.
Can depend on the line of where you got them, kind of a wait and see thing.
