Ideas for an Old Tire?

[CarleeAnn]

I found a couple of old tires, any ideas on if I can repurpose them for something in the duck yard?

Fasten them to the side of a big tub of water. Then you will have a duck mobile..

Use em' as brooding nest (Or just any ol' nest) Or if you're tired of heating your water you could take something like Styrofoam or those bubble wrap sheets you use for packing or really anything used for insulation and put it inside of the tire then put a smaller rubber waterer in it and that'l keep it from freezing. So far it's been working for me.

This is what I was thinking initially but I don’t know if my ducks would use it! Worth a shot though. I have a few tires so I could do a couple of things maybe.

My tub is too small to put it in.

That’s a good idea! But my water doesn’t freeze that often... Maybe I’ll keep one around because it is colder here where we moved to.

Make planters out of them outside the pen grow something yummy and let them out to eat or put fencing around them till plants are tall enough then let the duck have at it.

You can grow lettuce for the Ducks in them..
