My ducklings are being shipped today! 6/25

Speaking of hardware cloth... What’s the largest size of hardware cloth that can be used and still serve as a good defense against predators? The reason I ask is because we have plenty of grasshoppers and insects andit would be great if insects could make their way into the coop/run when the dinosaurs(Indian runners) aren’t able to free range under my supervision.

Recommended is half inch

1/2 inch it is.
Here is a better pic of what I think are future feathers on Elvira. I love the fuzziness!

Well, I’m still working on the coop. I work full time and it gets ungodly hot here in Texas. I think it’s supposed to be 108*F today.
Anyhow I rigged the brooder up to give more space in the meantime.
Sorry about the mess, I took this before sweeping.
