Yes, you can keep them together. A chicken may be foolish enough to eat a bee, but usually only once, though there may be a slow learner who will try again. They soon learn to leave them alone.

They will eat any dead or dying bees on the ground around the hive, but chickens are not usually interested in flying bees.

If they are wasps or killer bee's, anything very dangerous nesting in your gardennever get rid of the nest by yourself, always hire a professional If a wasp or bee is in your house catch them in a cup, slide a piece of card underneath the cup to trap it and let him free outside.

you could, but i wouldn't recommend it, unless you are really up to the job. you have to check it every once in a while, watch for dead bees and much more. do you really want to do this? if you do give them a large nest so that they don't swarm.
