Complete care for ducks?

I have a pen similar to this one:

Is it sufficient? I REALLY want to prepare for them before I bring them home.
Is that 2" x 4" welded wire?
 
I don't have Calls but I sure do love them little chubby things. Only thing with letting them fly off is where they may land you say the dogs next door are vicious what if one landed inside their fence. It's cool to see them flying but not knowing where they may end up isn't something I like to think about. I have Muscovy that fly and I clip wings to keep them home we don't have any close neighbors but we have a lot of predators of the wild kind.
You def want to secure anything you will be keeping your ducks in with hardware cloth That is a really nice set up with the coop and run not sure if right for calls but @WVduckchick is a call person I am sure she can give advise on housing.

Not me. I'm the bad duck mommy that lets my ducks roam free. :hide

They do have a lovely pen that I *can* lock them in when necessary, and they choose to spend time in it, but the gate is usually always open.
(can't really see it in this pic, but its all covered with netting)
