<Does anyone know if bees and chickens can live close to one another, <or do the chickens harass the bees and vice-versa? I have Bantam chickens (small version)and a few pheasant in a chicken wire coop located about 30' away from 5 hives. No problem. The birds are occasionally out of the coop and digging up the garden directly in front of the hives, and there is still no confrontation.
