Runner ducks - how big a door opening do they need?

[Peaches]

That probably sounds funny, but I've never had them and am considering getting some. My chicken coop door, where they would go to eat etc. is about 12 x 12 - my big muscovy's make it in but of course bend over. Runners are so upright... can the stoop? do they need a taller door.?

They can stoop

I think my coop door is about hat size and she does fine.

Our Runners, Khakis and Saxonies all sleep in the same shed, and they are so eager to get out the door in the morning that even before I am finished raising the 12 inch door they are all charging, stampeding, trampling each other to dive out the door, even if it's only half open.

I am guessing your door will work fine. Mine can scoot under things quite easily, though I sized the sliding door height to 2´, and I keep it open (the veranda door is the security door) about 2' wide.
