Hello, everyone! I’m new here, but have been lurking without an account for a couple months. New chicken and duck owner as of March (all were a week old or less then). We have six ducks and ten chickens. 3 Barred Rock, 3 Sapphire Gems, 4 Light Brahmas, 1 Cayuga, 1 Rouen, 2 Black Runners, 1 Pekin, 1 Swedish Blue. So far, loving all of them, chickens are a breeze compared the messy of the ducks. They are still stuck in the coop, it’s been chilly outside (in Montana) and we just got the run done today. I have them separated still but have been integrating them when I’m cleaning and feeding twice a day. My family and I have started a big garden last year and are adding more this year, should be an interesting endeavor. Husband and I have a 10-year-old and two 2.5-year-olds. Currently trying to figure out how to keep our coop a little drier for all of them and when to cull our males (we are wanting eggs and some meat). Any thoughts about the coop (nipple waterers inside and pool outside?) to keep our chickens from being in slop constantly. Thanks, and nice meeting everyone!
