suggested plants - if you could build the perfect waterfowl pen...?

I would not plant an Avacado tree, these are poisonous to ducks and geese! Other than that, i don't know, lol.

They will eat anything you plant, fairly quickly too. They like duckweed, which seems to be easy to grow. They'll also enjoy dandilions, pansies, marigolds etc...

If you plant it, they will eat it! lol

You could plant a couple "gardens" for them. Fence of a small area with a low fence, plant some edible greens, and then once they have grown you could let them in. If you plant a couple little areas you could practice "pasture rotation."

You will probably need to fence off the shrubs until they are established, every time it gets wet they will dig around at the base where the dirt is loose and hurt the roots. Mine easily dig holes 4-6 inches deep in puddles.
Looks like a beautiful place!

I am when I can - right now I can't - that doesn't mean I'm not going to get some when the pen is built.

I just can't do it until then, and I don't know when the pen will be built.
