So yesterday I posted some questions about ducks and a dog house we have, with pictures, located here:
https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/980731/ducks-breeds-and-pen-pond-lots-of-pictures
And from what I've gathered, it would really only be appropriate for 2-3 ducks (and I'm assuming that applies to chickens too?) so I guess now my question is if you think that it could possibly be expanded? Or if it would be possible to maybe add a dog crate/igloo or a second coop or something?
I wasn't sure it was because it seems pretty solid and is basically a mini replica of the house but then I thought maybe that back wall could come off?
I can try to get more pictures to put in this thread later but I think I deleted the others so for now it's just the link.
I should also clarify that if I get birds, I would most like be getting ducks OR chickens, not both, or if we did get both, they would each have their own coop. So they wouldn't both be in that dog house. But if we got ducks, I would be fine with only 2 or 3 but if we went back to chickens, I think we would probably need more than that, which is why I was asking. Plus it would just be nice for ducks to have more room anyways if we went that route.
So yeah, do you think it's possible to expand it?
We do have a plan for a coop that we could still do, for either bird, but I decided that if it's possible to fix up this or expand it, I'd like to try to first.
Thanks.
