Yeah! That looks perfect! And you have seen how messy they make their homes, so I am sure even though you don't think it is the prettiest set up, I bet the ducks think it is heavenly!

If I had that here I would have to make an ugly wire top cover, so you are lucky you don't have to worry about that part. It really looks great!

They are so happy...basking out doors. I no longer have duck smell in my house!

Willie the pot belly pig is in with the alpacas herding them around (he freaks the alpacas out!). When he gets tired of that, he'll go over and herd the ducks up and down their pen. It reminds me so much of Charlotte's Web when Wilbur is just looking for a friend! That's SOME pig!!!

My little ducks are out laying in the sun too and the geese are free ranging and chasing the dog around.

I have named my duckling group "The Dirty Junction Gang" They are starting to grow out feathers and they look like an old nappy throw rug covered in mud. I really can't wait for them to get their feathers and be shiny and smooth and pretty. The geese are fully feathered and it is amazing how clean they stay now. The dirt and water just roll right off of their shiny white feathers.

Mom finally put her foot down. No more all-day free ranging

So all seven of my chooks are in their runs

I found out we have a Bobcat prowling around our coops at night.

I hope the Guinea will scare it away with all their yelling when it shows up.

So far I haven't seen anything indicating it's tryign to break in.
