Chicken coops plans

My grandparents had a farm before. Now, their just too old to manage it.

To make it safe, I think you should put another fence in the middle to prevent competition in the food chain. Yes, they wouldn’t eat the other, but they might mess up each others feeding habits.

They might get along. Might I add that ducks and geese could go with even just a little grass and a crude fence, while chickens need some taking care of, and especially higher fences, because they do try to escape and they fly higher. To save money, and to get organized, why don’t you cut the area in half for those two species. Another advantage of separating them is to prevent the spread of parasites and disease. Aside from a farm, ducks and chickens do live in different habitats.

Ducks are much more aggressive than chickens and if something goes wrong, they might attack chickens. Roosters, which are necessary if you want to breed, are lethal killers too. If ducks attack, then expect some ducks to get hurt or even die. Even roosters kill one another so keep roosters tied with a shade always. Don’t think that I’m joking; ducks are a hardy species and aren’t afraid of everything. I’ve seen ducks attacking my grandmother’s dog.

The chickens (unless you are breeding wild chickens) might have all the bias since I know you’ll be spending more for shade, medicine and feeds, at least you’re providing a pond for those ducks, which can be their hunting ground. Tall grasses would be suitable for geese compared to low grass for chickens.

For your pond maybe some small fish. And try breeding some worms and insects. Low fruit bearing plants might be good. Aside from feeds, you can even put vegetable cuttings.

Here, I’m glad to answer your question and I hope it helps.
