I was just telling you how we do it because we have tooo many boys to have them all in one big space. The gander would have the feathers completely ripped out of the 2 drakes. lol. So if they all fit and the newest ones aren't being picked on why change anything? I was just voicing your concerns about the drake and his girl picking on the younger ones. yep that delivery charge would kill us.

I am such a procrastinator... or just busy... finally managed to add a temp wall in th duck house, with SOME success...!!

So first the two young girls went in on the left, then the two older onsjoined them on the left.... then the two younger ones were booted out and they went in on the right, and then the older hen joined the girls on the right.... then the male joned them all on the right.... then the girls were all booted out again... then the male chose his side, and afte about 45 mins of faffing, the girls went in, two young ones on the right, male and older hen on the left....

Goodness only knows what will happen if I introduce something else new, like an automatic watering station
