    Yup, as long as the chickens don’t pick on the ducks. I have a bunch of chickens and 3 mallards all in the same coop, and they get along fine. They all huddle up together at night. There are certain chickens feeds you can’t feed the birds though, because they aren’t excellent for the ducks. Also, the person above me is right, they make the water DISGUSTING! It gets filthy as soon as I clean it. You would need to get a waterer that both chickens and ducks can drink out of, but the ducks cant swim in or poop in.

    Usually yes just keep an eye on them for a couple of days to make sure they dont pick on each other. One other problem you might have is that the ducks will frequently dirty up the water and possibly muddy up the pen and chickens like a bit cleaner dryer habitat

    Yes, assuming they are adult birds. Chickens will kill baby ducks.
