I am getting ready to build my duck pen. I have a fenced in location (it is done with privacy fencing). It is 4' Tall by 8' wide by 30' long. Right now there is grass (ok, a weed grass crap combo type thing) growing in there. I'm lookin for something lower maintaince. Easy to clean the poo since it will be very close to my house (just off the back deck). Also note we do not have outside running water. We live in the country and and have a cistrean. I will use rain water for the ducks swimming pool. I'm putting the pool outside of their run. And they will free range most of the day and be able to swim.
Other details. I will have 4 Cayugas this year (but may add a few others next year, and two chickens (parthridge plymouth rock hens).
We are located in Ontario Canada. So that is part of the reason for having them close to the house. Warmer in the winter.
If you need anymore inforation I'd be happy to supply.
Thanks in advance
