    New duck owners! Wooohooo!

    I told hubby we could do that and he said "Are you CRAZY?! No way!!" We let our dogs out there and if they got to running, they could catch that cord and break their leg. Our son is one of the most absent minded kids I've ever met, and he mows the lawn, I could just see him not paying attention...

    I REALLY like your set up. I showed it to my husband and he liked it too. The only thing is... I don't have electric out where we're going to have the coop/run so I don't know how we would even do a pond like that with a pump at all. The other issue is that I want to use the water in the...

We're going to make an 8x24 enclosure for the ducks, and we plan on getting some chickens as well here in a couple of months, so by this fall we should have 4 ducks and 6-8 chickens. I believe that we're going to use 2 dog houses for the ducks. We're...
