Flush??! Is this for drinking? I thought Epsom salts would give them diarrhea.

That's the idea

as @Amiga said. I used the exact same link she gave you. Day one of flushing produced two really big poops

Hopefully I'm on the right track.

I was able to print off the "flush" recipes for my hard file. Thank you. I like being prepared.

Whether runner X Pekin or Black Swedish cross, we love our three ducks. Thank you for the help with identification.

Out of 20 eggs that went into lockdown, I'm pretty pleased. I was expecting more yellow though, I've 8 pekins (two drakes and 6 hens) a blue Swede pair and a mallard.

I have a couple questions about this coop: If the door was closed, and the window shut, would it have adequate ventilation? I mean, most of the time the door and window would be open, but what about at night? Should we make slits in the wood for ventilation?
Also, do you think that this could comfortably fit three ducks?
Thank you

I'm thinking a little small for 3 grown adult ducks, hard to tell by the picture. What are the dimensions? Ducks need large enough area to stretch their wings. There might be ventilation just under the 'eaves. If not, you could drill holes in the wood just under the roof. Of course all ventilation should be covered with hard ware cloth.

Yeah you should cut some small holes in the wood. Looks like it could fit three ducks!
