    Ok, so you really started something with this! I've watched it maybe 15 times now. And guess what - he lives about an hour and a half from us in the UK!!!! End result of this entire thread is that I'm at the start of ripping my ENTIRE Garden apart to make something similar to this 😂🤦🏼‍♀️ Ours...

    Sincerely - thank you. I know that it's not the best. I'm hoping it works; it might, it might not. Thank you for your kindness xx

    Yeah, I know. I've spent my whole life with animals. I find that quite a weirdly passively aggressive thing to say, given that I've never 'blamed' my beloved ducks for anything! Perhaps this isn't the place for me - I was looking for friendly discussion, not people to be condescending and insulting.

    I can't do the math on that - I have no idea what head is. Essentially, I've bought the best I can find for the money I have. Right now, I don't have the energy to create a full biological system, so I've done what I can. I grew up on a farm; the smell doesn't bother me one bit. I just want...

    I really appreciate the advice, thanks Dobie 😊 Just for a bit more info (and because I'm hoping you might tell me what you think); the filter is fed by a separate high-powered pump. It's designed for Koi, which are a lot heavier poo producers than most fish, and we've gone for a model that's...

    I'm feeling like I'm doomed to a life of duck poo 🤦🏼‍♀️ Ah well, they're worth it 😊 I've gone for this, which hopefully will help a bit until we can get something a bit more mega set up 😂 Thank you for all the lovely hellos 😊❤️ https://www.allpondsolutions.co.uk/auto-pfc-20000/

    That's a great system! It's a little like the one on tyrant farms blog; we were hoping not to have to make something so mega, but I'm now feeling like it's going to have to go that way. We're mega tight on space, but I think I can steal a bit from the chickens. Thank you 😊 xxxx

    Hey there 😊 Just joined, although I've been using the advice here on and off for a while. I grew up on a farm with chickens, but that was a loooong time ago! We currently have 5 chickens (3 golden warrens and 2 sunsets), and 7 ducks (miniature pom pom crosses). We live in a pretty standard semi...
