Hi folks,
We have 11 Black Swedish ducklings that are going on 2 weeks old. When they finally move outside to the yard, the pen I build for them will be where they will stay for 90% of the time. We may be able to free range them with supervision once we are sure on the types of predators we have around here and after we get a good potion of our property fenced in.
Going with the 10 square feet per duck guidelines, for 11 ducks would I be correct that a pen size of 120 square feet is suitable for them? So, ignoring height dimensions, a pen that is 10ft x 12ft is suitable?
Many thanks for the calculation assistance.
