After reading about some of your ducks being piggies about food I'm wondering if they would eat more than I could afford. We are more than likely going to get Swedish ducks. Our ducks would be penned at night and whenever we are gone to work or the rare times we might be gone for part of the weekend (pen will be approximately 6x16). After I get home from work they would be allowed full access to the backyard to forage until dark, weekends would probably be most of the day. We have too many free-roaming cats, and racoons to let them free-range the backyard all the time. Though I guess when they were adult-size a cat probably wouldn't bother them. I could do chickens if they would be less costly to feed but would prefer ducks (my hubby would prefer neither but is willing to put up with whichever I decide). Thanks in advance for your opinions.
