it makes my coop look like a hillbilly coop! That must have been super expensive too!

The coop on the right side was already here when we moved here 16 years ago and we used it for storage[junk] then when I got chickens 21/2 years ago we cleaned it out and made a chicken coop out of it, I had various sizes of duck house scattered around and finally talked my dh into building me a desent duck house onto the chickens coop, my son worked in construction and brought home alot of scrap wood for us so we built it mostly on scap wood we had, the meatal roof we bought and my dh put it on. when you look at the house you'll see the board running down the side that separates the 2 coops and there is a wall on the inside that has a door so the chickens and ducks are separate at night. The windows are from a redo and my dh made the doors.

Hey sounds great and if it works for you, thats even better. how many ducks? I see 2, thats a good number but if your like the rest of us you'll be wanting more.

Just two jumbo pekins but I'm going to hatch out either one or two anconas depending on how the hatch goes so I think im going to have to add an addition since half of the run is already a big pond.
