Wow, I'd love to have a built-in pond like that, but ours are literally scared of deep water. We have about 13 ducks and 2 geese on one side of the pen & 5 geese and two ducks on the other side. The geese need deep enough water to breed in, but the ducks usually splash out so much that even in the kiddie pool only an inch or so is left everyday. So everyday we have to fill all the pools up. I can't imagine how much this has added to the power bill. We literally have a huge pond, but all of our waterfowl are terrified of it! The Great Blue Heron that visits seems to be fine with it and they've never been bothered by the foxes or hawk while near it so I don't know what their aversion to it is.
See! Huge pond!
You think there's anyway to fence in just a section of the pond, not the whole thing? This is the first time I've seen the whole pond frozen and it was only about an inch deep, so we could've broken a hole open for them.
