Duck Coop? Cost?

[Going Quackers]

Going Quackers you could put a tin roof on it and a solid plywood back on one end for a snug coop for your ducks. It was real simple to build.

That is true, good idea~ i know after this winter i need to sort things a bit differently.. the heavy snow and cold has just been too much, of coarse watch i do all this and we'll barely be cold and have little snow this coming winter lol

Here is my Quack Shack. Cost me about $600 to build. It is heavier than I expected, so I'm building some retractable wheels to move it around.

I like that Quack Shack alot. perfect for Fl weather.

But you'll be ready when you do.

How much is too much is subjective. Are YOU willing to pay that much? I personally built my duck coop for under $60, but we just paid $3,000 for a privacy fence so they free range in our yard during the day so there was no cost for a run. You can check out the coop by following the link in my siggie.. its not to fancy but they like it =)

I saw a chicken coop for €249.00 for 6 laying hens

but it is definatly OK for 2 pekin ducks. There are other ones for sale on that website.

If your handy you may come out better building your own.website didn't work for me.

I agree with Lydia, it is MUCH cheaper to build your own. We reused materials which is why ours only cost $55 when we expanded it! You can make it as intricate or simple as you want (and your skill allows).
