What kind of ducks do you have? Once I know we can determine the amount of space needed.What is the minimum space per duck is needed for an outdoor enclosure?
I want to give them a nice large area, but unfortunately cannot let them have run of the entire yard. We have 6 ducks, and I don't want their space to be too small.

Looks like maybe Pekins and either black sweedish or a choclate/black/blue runner.Well what kind of ducks are in her profile picture?![]()
So then how much space do these standard sized mallard derived ducks require?Looks like maybe Pekins and either black sweedish or a choclate/black/blue runner.
Well in my experience with the Jumbo Pekins and Pekins in general I would say for 6 ducks that you would need at least 200 square feet plus a pool for them to swim. All together around 400 square feet. That is my opinion lol.So then how much space do these standard sized mallard derived ducks require?
Must be a massive pool lol. Swimming water is not a requirement for ducks, as long as they can dunk their heads in water they will be alright.Well in my experience with the Jumbo Pekins and Pekins in general I would say for 6 ducks that you would need at least 200 square feet plus a pool for them to swim.

THAT IS SUCH A HARD QUESTION! My top 3 are: 3. Pekin 2. Runners in general 1. Khaki Campbell (even though I have none they are very interesting). What are your top 3?Must be a massive pool lol.

So here is a question, what's your favorite breed of duck?
