I am getting ready to build my duck their home. I watch a P.Allen Smith video about his ducks. He stated the ducks like to nest on the ground/earth. I was think of putting the nesting boxes part of the coop on the bare ground. Is this a good idea? I live in ohio and winters can be really cold, so before I build I was just wanting make sure I build the home correctly. i have 6 female so how many nesting boxes should I have? Should it be open ventilated across the top or soild vent. Maybe just a big dog house? I have look at so many pic of duck coop that all look so different. What all dose a duck house need?
