    Will they lay this year?

    My girls were hatched beginning of April and end of April do you think they will lay this year? They have settled in really well! 2 runners and 2 Campbell's :-) xxx

    Sooo got another one..

    No not at all the make like a quiet warbling noise most of the time and they only really quack when they are after their food, the white Campbell's are a lot quieter, the runner is loud when she quacks off but not massively so! Xxx

    Sooo got another one..

    The Campbell's were so nervous yesterday I wondered if I got 1 runner that's bigger and noisier if they would feel more confidant.. Worked a charm! Within 2 minutes of getting dippy home the Campbell's were out of the house for the very first time!

    Lighting duck houses in winter

    Is it normal lighting you use or does it have to be UV? Xxx

    Egg and soldier have a body guard!

    In the form of my cockerpoo! My old faithful has protected me from many things, foiled burglaries and now she is standing guard over the ducks. I can't tell you how much I love this dog! Xxx

    Ha ha ha I've just googled pekins and compared them to Campbell's but I can't tell the difference at all :-) xxx

    Noo sorry these are my first ducks, I was set on getting runners then I had my head turned by the white Campbell's xxx

    But we ended up with 2 Campbell's instead of runners :-)

    No! But I'm going to build one now :-) thanks for the advice! What did you do for a door for access? Xxx

    Worried about foxes

    Galvanised chicken wired double layer, what can I reinforce it with? The pressure is on! The ducks are coming tonight, we have the house ready and were going to keep it in the garage until we finish the run tomorrow. I'm about all week long so I will guard them until we can reinforce the run...

    Worried about foxes

    Would a chicken wire cover do any good ?

    Worried about foxes

    We haven't even got egg and soldier yet but I'm worried about fox attacks, we live in a semi urban area (think suburban town) in the UK, the duck house is very secure but the run I'm building is literally to keep the ducks in and the dogs out and it's going to be 6x2.5m so plenty big but no...

    Ooh I've just had a look, so do you keep the top open in the run then? Xxx
