Duck house size?????

I haven't had ducks get stuck, but the definit move as a flock and will all try and run in and out of the house at the same time! When I unlock the door in the morning it's a mad rush and trample to see who can squeeze out first before the door is even fully open.

Mine climb the chicken wire on the door every morning, they are so desperate to get out first. I always have three or four ducks going through at once, not only ones on the ground, but also ones who thought they could get out faster by playing leapfrog. It's hilarious.

A house full of ducks is like a stampede. All trying to get out at once.

@blayt90 can you post a pic of your house your using for your ducks?

 

[quackingdom]

Do the ducks go in there by themselves?

They haven't a door to lock them inside gosh mine would be gone with in a week or less with out locking them up.

It is the board that is to the left of the house. It latches in with barrel locks.

Oh okay and they have plenty of ventilation. once door is locked? It's important they have lots of air flow.

Yes the back top is open with wire across it and the door has a 3 inch gap across the top of it also.

My ducks finally figured out the purpose of their house. They are eager to come out in the morning and usually go back in at night by themselves when it starts getting dark and just wait for me to lock then in for the night.

It's amazing how fast they learn as long as we stay at it and be consistent in training.

Sure are pretty ducks.
