    Our Duck Died. what caused it?

    Just reading over the comments and I don't think he would have been trying to breed her since it was late at night. So far the drake is doing ok.

    Roll away box.

    I have a set of ply wood nest boxes that are already there and we think we might have an egg eater. I was wanting to know how hard it would be to add a roll away box under it. The boxes are about 8 or so inches off the ground and open to the coop. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Small Gnats

    Up date I put the dust in the places where they already dust bathe in the sand. Done it one day then repeated about 3 days later there were gnats everywhere but not on the little ones. It's supposed to rain really hard tonight so I will probably need to do it again when the weather clears.
