X2 never even got the fencing pics on here on my computer till now. That is cute fencing but never will protect them. Nice big run behind your home but close so it won't be an eyesore to the neighbors[can't please them all] and they will be safe from predators or escape.
Thank you Miss Lydia for all of your comments, you have helped us a lot with all of your information!
The fencing is cute but you are absolutely right, it is not predator proof.
It rencely got a small update, where we added chicken wire to the inside all away around and over lapping the top fence piece.
I will upload pictures in the morning, right now it's to dark.
The chicken wire has made it pretty duck escape proof but again we still need ideas for predator proofing.
Thank you for the other comment with the links, I will definitely check those out right away.
Snice we own our house and most of the neighbors rent, we are not to worry about upsetting anyone.
Plus it seems all the neighbors enjoy them around, so I dont think anyone would complain about a run.
My idea pin would be fully enclosed and a locked gate so we can enter easily to clean, hang out with the ducks, refill water/food easily, ect.
But also something we could DIY build, we are all about reusing material and enjoying creating stuff.
I've looked online about purchasing a enclosed pin but they all look so industrial (the dog kins are a great idea but I'm not into the metal birdcage look) and on the small side unless you want to dish about a bunch of money.
Thank you again for your help, and if you come across anymore DIY pins i would love to see!
