I imagine you just build a big duck house.

I know but I’m a novice builder and need a tutorial just to build a little hut for two geese. I know they need 8 sq ft each and ventilation and a clean out door plus an entry door their size that can stay open during the day. But how to put it together I need visuals and instructions

I was even looking at extra large dog houses , Amish built, very nice, but a thousand dollars yikes. So are there articles on building duck houses? Where are they? Mixed in with the chicken coops? I guess I keep searching through all the pages… poor ducks and geese have no coop/house building article section of their own?

I use dog kennels with a large dog travel crate as a nest box.

I’ve looked as well. I ended up starting a thread asking about it in the duck section, then came over here to see if anything was in the goose section. Hopefully some are willing to share there setup.

How about starting with goat barn plans and and merging in duck house ventilation and flooring?

For 99% of the time, my geese refuse to use any type of shelter. Snow, rain, wind they happily sleep outside in the elements.
I use dogloos as brooding huts and just an oversized enclosure.

I did find this thread. I hope I’m sharing it right…
