Please Check out these pictures of my goats loving my chickens

My chickens and goats are penned separately, but I found my very first egg in the goats hay in the goat house!! Totally unexpected. Chicks were spending time I didn't know about in there. Now they all hang out together every day. They love each other.

I never thought of putting my chickens with the goats. What about chicken poop? I just envision the goats stepping in it and stuff? Would that be an increased risk of hoof rot and such?

I have 3 hens living with my goats now. I spray the chicken poop away. The area they live in is pretty big. So there is lots of room for them to go. I have my guinea's living with them too. Everyone gets along really well.

I have ducks and guineas living free range with my goats... In fact my ducks think the creep feeder makes a great place to make a nest... Of course our creep feeder is just a section of the barn sectioned off and it's pretty big...

Whenever I have kidds, it seems like they all try out their first head butting on the chickens--until they find out that the chickens are 1) bigger than they are & 2) don't back down!
they all get along, though & have their own 'pecking order.'

Did a quick bit of Photoshop, hope you don't mind.

That is what my newest baby did. She chased my hens all over. It was hilarious.
secuono I don't mind at all.

my chickens and goats love each other but had to separate when I got my guardian pup great pyr thought it was great to chase my chickens now she plays with the kids.
the funniest thing though is my 14 wk old boer doeling loves my cats and kittens but so does my shar-pei and she doesn't want to share her babies she (dog) will even clean them and bark at the doeling to tell her they are hers,

so a few of the kittens will go into the pen to visit the doeling instead.

My chickens free range in the goat pasture all the time, and eat with the goats too. Sometimes, the goats step on the chickens feet and just stand there while the chickens try to get away. They have never hurt any of them, and I sometimes think they do it intentionally to watch the chickens trying to get loose.
