Does anyone know where I can buy a large coop/run for my 4 ducks? That are rat/mouse proof?

[Chocorobo12]

I have a garden full of fruit trees so it's not possible for me to keep the disgusting vermin out... they even go after my lemon and kumquat trees when the other fruits are not even season... they even eat my tomatoes... and are constantly stalking my ducks... my yard has high walls so no predators can really get in besides rats and mice as they are acrobats... I do put my ducks into their tiny coop at night to keep them safe.... but I prefer to have something huge (preferably around 15'x15' but nothing I'm seeing on Amazon is rodent proof... does anyone know where I can buy one that size? Appreciate any help I can get thank you

You could build on or redo an old shed, they don't really sell coops that big.

You could probably find someone to build one for you, And if you don't put food and water inside most likely you won't have rodents in the coop. What state are you in? The Amish are great builders and would be able to build you a nice secure coop.

We rent and so I dont want to invest money in building a coop.. if we move I don't imagine it would be easy to take it apart and bring it with us to our new home... a coop you buy from a manufacturer I imagine would be easier to assemble and disassemble
And I live in Southern California

Could you line whatever you can buy with 1/4 inch hardware cloth?

I guess that would be my only option since they don't sell rodent proof coops.

If you have predators that might dig under, it would be good anyway to bring the hardware cloth under the ground anyway. I have half inch hardware cloth on my coop but mice can still fit through - amazingly!

They are a menace indeed

I’m not sure such a coop exists. I finally invested in a grandpa’s feeder for my ducks. It has a step peddle, sort of like a step lid trash can, that opens when they want food. Rats poop and pee on top of it as if to let me know their displeasure that they have no access to the food. It took my ducks about a month to learn how to use it.
