Unlike the chicken coop - I built the duck pen before hatching the call ducks..

They are adorable, do they ever fly off? thats the only reason I'd be worried about having them since most keep them under some sort of coverd pen to keep them from flying off. I clip my muscovies one wing to keep them home.

Wow those are some beautiful coops! I'm sorry I haven't been posting, I was on vacation and didn't have wifi. My duck toller has never seen my ducks since the ducks are at my dads house and my Jackie is at my moms house. He hates water and doesn't care about wild ducks thou so I think he'd just want to cuddle with the ducks if he ever met them.

They stay in that covered pen all the time between their inside pen and outside pen. They would fly away or I'm afraid the 1 hawk we have would get them. They are my babies and I want to keep them as safe as possible.

I didn't see your pen is covered, good idea, they would make a tasty snack for sure.

Oh no we don't want the duckies to get eaten!!!!!!

Of course you don't want your duckies to be eaten!

Here is mine. I'm in Florida so mine is basically open air. One corner is covered.

During construction

Finished
