Quackmire Downs houses 13 ducks on the bottom. Roosts were added to the top at the demands of the 4 hens.

It boasts automatic waterers and a nesting box where the hens actually lay.

An ugly feed shed completes the compound.

Okay was Finally able to upload some pics of the inside of my duck/goose house. since I have 2 drakes and a gander that sleep in this house we made individual rooms inside so the Boys would behave them selves. This kinda shows how it's set up.

How the heck do you clean those back pens out?? They look like there a foot deep. Do the panels slide up and out?

Inquireing minds want to know!

if your talking to me I use deep litter, I clean the top poop off throw it into my large bucket for the compost take a pitch fork and turn the bedding every day. then once a week i add a top dressing of new shaving, I only clean out half of the bedding each spring to keep the microbes going for the new fresh bedding that I put in. It very easy and has worked for me for going on 9 years now,

For our chickens we do the deep litter method, but for the ducks I just replace or put an inch or 2 of shavings on the top of the old.
