Yep! More animals! Can I possibly keep these 2 male ducks together? Will they fight? can they bunk with the chickens in the winter? What else should I know?

This is not good advice. Keeping Drakes with chickens works great!... until it doesn't. It only takes one attempted mating for a drake to injure or kill a hen. Why would you want to take that risk? If you go to the emergencies/diseases section, and type drake injured hen (or something similar) into the search bar, you will see many, many, many instances where poor hens have suffered severe trauma from drakes attempting to mate them.Overall, you won't know until you try but two male ducks raised together 'should' be fine and can be mixed with hens. There are far too many variables for a generalised statement. Enjoy!
