I found this beauty on Craigslist today. Already sealed up, as the previous owner used it for an aquaponics system. Has a drain already built in, and our garden is on the other side of the fence in the picture. I am going to connect the drain to some PVC, and rig some type of drainage to water the garden.

Does anybody have any advice for a ramp? Also, I got some pallets today, and I need to build a duck house. I've browsed the internet, but a lot of them are generic. I'd like some advice from some of our more experienced waterfowl owners.

I haven't measured it yet, but my best guess is 5x5, and 3.5 ft tall.







 
For a ramp you can make wood into the shape of a V and cut lines or put down rough material on the wood so they can get out without slipping.
 
Ok so this is what I ended up with! Spent $75 total, including the ducks. The ramp is temporary, but it is already proven to work.
