I am trying to get some experienced thoughts on this building that’s on my property. My current house that I used all winter was a hoop house that had no spines and actually started collapsing on me towards the end. Which ended up ok as a fox decided that my duck flock was lunch. So I moved the ducks to a different part of my property.
This buil It’s approximately 5-6 feet by 10 feet. It would have to be moved to be useful as you can see by the pictures but I am wondering if this building could be used and turned into a stable duck house for my flock without to much trouble after moving it.

It will be covered in plywood and then some type of siding, not this white tarp.
 
They will be out most of the day being let out after laying time and back in around dark.. Numbers right now I am going to guess 8 batnam ducks and 6 normal size ducks.
 
It could work fine. I kept my 4 ducks in an old converted dog house allowing 3-4sf per duck.
Once you move the building to its desired location, secure it with welded wire fencing or hardware cloth and ground aprons to prevent digging. Allow plenty of ventilation and proper bedding and your set.
