You make it about 12 inches long and then just bury it so it is flat....Use big rocks around the edges if you want? I don't do that....
Thanks!
So far, we have to:
Redo the fencing in hardware cloth
Make a new door (The old one was pretty much demolished in a storm)
Build a new section for the coop
Bury hardware cloth
Line bottom of the coop with hardware cloth
We have a lot of work to do! We made it so that the ducks are in their brooder (That's in my room!) for four/five weeks. Then we move them to the garage. We put plastic down, line the plastic with babygates, pile shavings on top, and give food, water, and a heat lamp. We make it big enough so that they can stay there for a while. I figure we have maybe two and a half months to get this done...
I do not want to poop on your parade....lol....You will be moving them to the garage a lot sooner than you think?.....Poopers........Poopers stink...![]()

Lol okay! I guess we managed to keep the ducklings in the house as long as we did because they slept in the basement, so minimum smell upstairs.
I'm going to try and keep them for as long as I can without going nuts!
We are going to start next weekend; the snow should all be melted by then.
Speaking of poop and ducklings, does anyone know how to clean poopy towels?![]()
I use puppy piddle pads........I can buy them at the dollar store cheap or at wal mart ....![]()

Hope so! I know I've said this at least ten times but I can hardly wait! I really want to get started on the coop, and make it as secure as possible.
We are also buying a security camera. If we see anything digging around, we'll put the ducks in the garage and reinforce even more. I really hope they'll be okay.
Your fear is understandable...![]()
You already lost some..![]()

...They will be safe and Happy....I did not realize you were excited to get them?...lol...![]()
