Indian runner ducks and Cochin chicks

Posted on May 5, 2003

Question:
Hi Chuck,
I inherited an Indian Runner duckling and want to raise it alongside my new Cochin chicks. Any foreseeable problems? Or should I separate them and adopt a new IR duckling to keep it company?
Thanks for your help!

Answer:
As chickens tend to pick more than ducks I might be apprehensive about mixing them especially when young. To my knowledge, I dont know any other problems with mixing them. Good luck, Chuck.
