Help! I need a coyote proof cage for my ducks!

[Emmytheduckgirl]

Hey BYC! I’m possibly moving soon and I need a cage that coyotes can’t get into! My two ducks are my everything and I don’t want to have to sell them or have them die when I move! This new place has coyotes and I’ve never had to worry about that with my ducks! please help!

I need to know what cage to build and what I should use!

I don't know about ducks and their needs, but @Miss Lydia and @Isaac 0 sure do.

Do you live in the US, and are moving to another state? Coyotes are distributed in each state, so they are where you're at now. Don't get me wrong coyotes can be a real pain, but what you really want to be considered about, is raccoons.

There are so many duck coop designs out there, so go ahead and do a google search and see what looks good to you, but what you're looking for is a coop with no ramps, easy to clean, plenty of ventilation, water draining away from the coop, predator-proof, and plenty big for two ducks.

I live in Cali and now I’m moving to a different city that had been known to have lots of coyotes and rattle snakes! Thanks for the help!

Electric wire fence, hair clipping. Human hair cut into fine pieces. It gets in their nose and keeps them moving on, "sometimes".

Ok thanks!
