I love these ideas, especially the litter boxes! Where do you get the pine pellets? Like for wood burning stoves? We used to use them for ferret litter for the same reason when I kept ferrets!Everyone here pretty much covered everything. I just wanted to add that I have been really loving pine pellets for my ducks. They break down when wet so you don't end up with a water logged pile of bedding. I rake everything once a day to mix up the broken down pellets and anything that's even slightly damp dries out very quickly after a quick rake. I also ordered what are technically cat litter boxes off of chewy.com and I set 2 gallon water buckets that I got from tractor supply in them. They catch quite a bit of the water that would otherwise end up on the ground.

Tractor supply in the livestock area is where I get mine. This is what the bag looks like (Google pic)I love these ideas, especially the litter boxes! Where do you get the pine pellets? Like for wood burning stoves? We used to use them for ferret litter for the same reason when I kept ferrets!
6 ducks, 2 geese. I think the pen is 6’x9’ and they will be free ranging part time as of next week. Would you recommend keeping their food and water outside once they’re allowed out during the day?
@amberchickens I think the size is adequate for overnight for your number of ducks and geese, so long as they are outside with more space during the day.Tarp the sides that face the direction storms and wind come from.
