"A" frame coop for ducks

[CahoonCustomCutting]

Ok so with 5 layers I could get away with a 6x8 coop and the meat birds will all be kept separate. But with 5 birds about how many eggs could we expect. I'm sorry for all the questions but I am new to poultry and just want to do it right

5 Hens can lay lots of eggs. I'm saying lots over the laying season.

Here in Alberta all birds take a break so you won't get eggs for a few months a year. Duck breeding is slow.

If you're going to have runners they are NOT meat birds. They are small and light and not used for meat.

Bones are good for soup. But my first ducks will be appleyards thank you for all your help and recommendations
