Hi. We have 1 duck, Ulysses. He is about 8 years old. One of our dogs found him in our yard when he was a tiny guy, no feathers yet! No neighbors with ducks. He was all alone. Yes, I know I should have turned him in to a wildlife rehab facility but at the time my boarding kennel was very busy and I was alone. He is a Mallard. I guess. I fixed up a safe place for him but felt it was not big enough for 2 or more ducks. It is 8’ x 16’. Yes I feel guilty. But here we are. He is organically fed and gets fed fresh or cracked corn and grass and alfalfa. Saw a video here of a floppy top feeder to prevent sparrows eating the expensive food. Looking to get one of those floppy top feeders help!

Welcome. Is this the post? https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...cket-feeders-keep-house-sparrows-out.1608012/
