    Ducks are here and enjoying the new pallet house!

    So we got them last tuesday finally posting the pictures I took So far so good they seem to be happy. The white/fawn runner duck seems to be growing 3 times faster than the blue and brown and has since taken the duty of Watch Duck. :) White fawn also seems to really enjoy getting her photo taken...

    Finished the new duck coop err pen orrrr whatever its called?

    Thanks Everyone! Hopefully the ducks huey, dewey and louie like it! The wax sealant is a good I idea I like the gym flooring idea cause you can take it out and scrub/hose it off then toss it back in and not have to worry about water collecting inside the coop as much. But who knows I dont...

    Those are all good ideas, I am going to finish today and I will post some pictures up of the final product. I didnt make a ton of vent just cause I assumed it would help keep them warm but I guess they stay warm basically on their own? I finished painting the whole thing with thompson water...

    yea the gravel is just in the run area...actually the current flooring inside the coop is some left over cork laminate flooring...I might put some left over rubber gym mat on top of that to make cleaning even easier.

    yeaaaaaa my lab is not a real lab....looks like a chocalate lab but acts like a little lap dog. Doesnt really chase things, doesnt like to swim, not to keen on playing fetch and very well behaved so after a couple days im sure she will be just fine :) but thanks for the tip
