Drop in on the Call Ducks Finally Hatched thread, or Da Cute and Cuddly Call Duck thread - a number of people there have indoor ducks.

From what I remember reading, some folks use things like pop-up laundry baskets, or little dog tents for the ducks' crate, some have diaper harnesses for letting the ducks run around a bit more. Some cover their living room floor in an old sheet . . . many ways to sort it out. Some ducks sleep in a box beside the bed.

Ooooh, where in Washington? I'm just north of Seattle! I use a plastic laundry bin for my Wobbles to sleep in, but he's a call duck so he's about a quarter the size of a Peke. They stay in my bedroom, and wear diapers during the day.

This is so exciting! We have a whole thread dedicated to house ducks, so if you have any questions please feel free to ask!
