I have a pure wild mallard hen that i hatched and raised (my dad got the eggs because the wild duck laid her eggs on their machinery outside) and i have a question.
When i was raising her she was very afraid of me, but know she knows this is home, she will get flushed by my dog fly out of sight then come back so shes staying not migrating. I want to make her a pond so i can get more but we dont have any natural springs and the pond we have to water our cow dries up because its very little so i was wondering if i could get an inground pond like the black ones for fish but my dad said it will get really dirty from the poop in the bottom not being able to get out so how could i remove the waste while not moving the pond? Snales?
