Hi All,
My BF daughter has a dozen hens in a huge coop, more than enough room for a few ducks. She has 4 Muscovy ducks, 1 drake and 3 hens. The ducks are bossing the chickens around to the point that the chickens don't want to come down from the roosts and don't lay very well.
Is there a duck breed that will coexist better with the chickens. We have heard that Runner ducks are consistent layers.
TIA,
Di
