Hi all ,I've been build my duck Aviary posted here ;
https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=251069
I plan on getting some of the above breeds of ducks for my aviary ,
one of my question is this when the duck are not laying / sitting on eggs in the nesting boxies do they all sleep in a small coop on the ground and not use the nesting boxies .
the other question is how high do you place the nesting boxes off the ground (3 feet)
and can you tell me about how high or large are these ducks ( 6-8 " in heigth ) if so I will not have to build a large coop or shelter for sleeping and getting out of bad weather I don't want to build a coop or shelter to high and looks like a big ugly box sitting in the corner of the aviary.
Thanks Alan
