Duck and goose with chickens

[funnyfarm2]

I have a goose and duck that found themselves at my home. We've been keeping them with our chickens. Any idea how to keep the mess from the water and feed down? (They are so messy)

My ducklings are with my chickens at the moment. I keep all the water containers in the run so that the coop does not get water logged. When I was growing up the only way we found to keep the ducks from making a mess of the chicken pen was to keep them out of it.

Our ducklings will have their own pen when we build it for them next weekend. Ducks and geese make a mess of every thing, especially when it rains!
