    Winter Shelters for Ducks

    Thought i'd pop in here to tell you guys I moved the little coop house and ended up in urgent care with a bad tear in a muscle in my back!!!! Almost passed out into the duck pond, landed in a pile of duck poop and leaves which were still stuck all over me when I was in urgent care (It's ok, you...

    Winter Shelters for Ducks

    Mine were the same although after 2 weeks of herding them into here they go in all by themselves now.

    Winter Shelters for Ducks

    I should explain that it's a cage that stands fine by itself and then the thick plastic for wind/water protection. No it's not particularly predator proof but so far our only predators are hawks which can't see them in there. I'm just concerned about snow and temp with just plastic. Do I need to...

    Winter Shelters for Ducks

    This is another option I have. In my original post I said all 5 ducks wouldn't fit in there but perhaps they would? It has a very small run that can be attached to it. But it's currently in a very exposed spot and the doorway is facing the direction we get most of our wind. I can move it but I'm...

    Winter Shelters for Ducks

    This is another structure they have, not big enough for all of them. At least 1 duck has decided this week to start laying her eggs in there. This also has a 'door' but I never close it as they don't go in there except to lay.

    So this is their cage they go into at night, sometimes I put wood over the entrance sometimes I don't. It's a clear tablecloth type material over it. The picture makes it look very small but it's actually fine for my 5 ducks. As you can see it's in a sheltered spot.

    Winterizing/ventilating chicken coop

    I have a large shed I use as a chicken coop. It is plenty big enough for my 18 chickens, I could easily have 8 or so more without thinking about crowding. It has a big window and the top panes of this window are currently just mesh. I was planning on blocking these up for the winter to keep the...

    Winter Shelters for Ducks

    This is my first winter with poultry. I've got the chicken winter situation pretty well figured out but I'm not so sure about my ducks. I have a wire cage that they go into at night and I have a tarp over the top and sides, the back side is sheltered but not tarped, i.e. it's not going to get...

    Rouen Ducks

    I have a female Rouen and she doesn't seem to be laying although is way old enough. Any help? I can identify my other duck's eggs as to who they belong to. I thought I got about 3 eggs from my rouen shortly after I got her but then no more that looked the same at all. Can someone show me what...
