    Ramp for Muscovy ducks

    I have a roost about 3 feet off the ground but my Muscovies won’t use it. They were roosting at previous home with previous owner on even higher roosts (6+ feet) but I’ve had to clip a wing on each of them to keep them home. I don’t think they can get enough lift (especially my Drake) to get up...
