What a great idea, love it.It's Red Rooster Poultry Flooring (http://www.doublel.com/poultrydivision/poultry-flooring/ol-flooring.html). I used to use it in dog kennels. Now I'm hoping it will keep the ducks cleaner

I used a Play House that I bought second hand, it is up on a vinyl covered pallet and 8 inch cement blocks to give them a 12 inch shaded area underneath as well. 1/2 inch hardware cloth on windows and door, it's worked very well so far, easy to hose down when they projectile poop up the walls, and the windows provide good ventilation with the heat right now.
They haven't had any issues with the ramp to get in and out

LOVE THIS. I am about to lose my mind with these ducks and their mess/smell. UGH! Do you still use this? Do you recall how deep the pit was? Also, was it approximately as wide as the pool? where did you place the stopper, along the edge or in the middle?Here's my duck house. I LOVE ducks, but they are the messiest creatures on earth. For their pool, I dug a large pit in the ground, and put several boards over the pit. The pool sits on the support boards. I drilled a hole in the bottom, and put a regular bathtub plug in the hole. Now, I just pull the plug, and all that dirty water drains into the pit below, then soaks into the ground. It is the easiest way to change water, and the ducks love it!
Here are a few views of the house. Some of these pics were taken last year, and I have since put tough livestock wire around the pen. Hope you like them
