Housing for runner ducks

[Dm3223]

Hey all,
I’m sure this has been answered on here 100 times but I currently have 2 runner ducks living in a 4’6” x 4’7 house. We just hatched 3 ducklings and am wondering after they are done their brooder period would that space be enough for 5 runner ducks? Thanks!

Note- we have had 3 using the house for a year now pretty happily, but I wasn’t sure if that was maxed for space

i think you might need an upgrade. Ducks need a lot of space to move around, swim around and forage.

They have a place to swim and they free range on 3 acres all day long, that was the Dimensions of their house hah
