Mandarin ducks

I am looking for info on nesting boxes to make for mandarin ducks. Does any one have any plans or pics. I could sure use some ideas. Thanks Lou

They use wood duck style nest boxes.... usually 1ftx1ft wide, 18 t0 24 inches tall, a 4inch entryway. Do a search on google for "wood duck nest box"

Or here this one: http://www.ducks.org/Conservation/WaterfowlBiology/2716/WoodDuckBoxes.html

I build mine just like Scott said (I think there are pics on my site), except for the hole I do an oval. 3.5" high by 5" wide.
