Duck pool

What do you use for your duck pool? I purchased the small plastic pool from wal mart, but was wondering if I should have got the bigger one. I have two ducks.

The smaller kiddy pool should be fine for just two. usually four or five of mine pile into a small pool when I change the water. I also have one of the large pools and all 8 fit in there. Your little one should be fine. Can we see pictures of your ducks? pretty please?

What you have should work fine for 2 ducks. It really just depends on how much $ you want to put into it. You can spend a lot of money for a very fancy set-up but what you have should work.

That is perfect!!! You made the right choice. I have been using the plastic Wal Mart pools for MANY years. They love them. I have geese and ducks on my property. I have 7 of the plastic Wal Mart pools that are placed at different locations, so that there is no figthing among them. You will see how much they will enjoy the pools.

Do any of you have drains on the pools or do you just flip them to change the water? My ducks are just about ready to go outside and have a pool, but I wasn't sure if I could flip one to clean it out if it had water in it, or if I should put a drain in it somehow.
Thanks!

I just flip the pool over... I am needing to get a new pool.. and I will be putting a drain in just to make cleaning easier

I use kitty pools too for my ducks and geese. The blue ones from walmart. They work great but my only complaint is that they are to flexable for one person to easily turn over. I have to hold down a side and let most of te water out before I can tip it and having poopy dirty duck water run all over your hands and feet is not fun!
