Hi there. I keep 9 Pekin bantams together with 3 RIR hens, 3 Marans hens and a couple of Welsummer girls, 2 crested legbar hens and a buff Orpington cockerel. This morning he was trying to tread one of my little Pekin girls, but she declined his amorous affections in no uncertain manner!! My feisty little Pekins more than hold their own in a mixed flock!!
