Duck coop fail?

[moleary23]

I built a duck coop for my four pekin Ducks. The problem is the house part is above the run and the ducks won't climb the ramp I made. The ramp isn't steep and has little things to keep it from getting slippery. Any suggestions on how to get my ducks to go up.

How wide is the ramp? Ducks need a very gradual ramp and it needs to be pretty wide. Have you tried to use peas or other treats to lure them up?

I've tried putting there food up there and they just won't budge. The ramp is about 10 inches wide.

Do you have a pic of the set up? Anyway you can lower the house? Maybe add sides to the ramp? Or maybe make an "L" shaped ramp so it's not going straight up? My 2 Pekins did not like the ramp, but they got lucky bc once I got more ducks I ended up building a new house on the ground
