Duck Pen

Similar product is called poultry flooring, but its meant to be installed on a wood framework. I keep my ducks in the yard on grass. I spray the poop wth a garden hose. I get constant rain but not huge quantities. (No puddles)
 
I suppose it depends on what your yard/ garden looks like. If there are low spots where there are puddles you could always fill them in with stone, round pebbles that won't hurt the ducks feet.
I've seen some people use straw or wood chips in their duck run. It would probably have to be shoveled out at some point but you could always add it to a compost bin.
We use wood mulch in our run and it works well but we are not as damp where we are in the US.

Your ducks are super cute, love runners!
I love your pool set-up!
 
This is by far one of the best investments I've made for my kids. I get a little ocd about dirt mess and puddles and prefer my kids to be spotless clean with little to no mud. I also give them lots of kisses, and being clean is a must lol. I recently purchased soft rubberized floor mat tiles that provides excellent traction and works extremely well for damp areas. I hose my kids quite frequently. The floor mats comes in an arrangement of colors and provides air flow beneath. Its relatively soft for their feet as I can go barefoot without any discomfort. The floor mats are quite flexible and can bend and shape to your liking, or you can even cut it to fit certain areas. Best of all its weatherproof, uv resistant, and easy to clean. I've used manna pro shavings in the past and stopped after the first use, it wasn't my thing. Its about $40 or so for 12 tiles which is not bad at all. I also threw foraging grass seeds clovers etc within the holes and soon I should have greens growing once more 😊 View attachment 2496881View attachment 2496886
Any problems with bumblefoot on these? Can you share the link? I found some on Amazon but they were a little more expensive than you said.
