DUCK/GOOSE RUN WE JUST BUILT!

The 2 of us just finished building a 'run' addition to the 'little goose coop' we built ourselves 5 years ago (with no plans, experience, fancy tools, or help!)

We had a not great, make-do, detached 'run' for several years and finally designed and built this new one onto the coop for our 3 ducks and pet goose, Gabby, and just finished! It took us only about 10 days start to finish with a lot of by hand excavating! They now have a safe, attached run with a little door for them into their coop.

Soft river rock base is gentle on their feet and easy to clean. (Was recommended by a vet, and it's working out great)!

The little garden we made built into the rock patio was a great place for some excess dirt. We made a little wattle border around it and planted it with wildflower mixed seeds.

We designed our goose coop to blend with our 250 year old house and we think the run compliments it as well...Everything was done by us on a budget and cost far less than anything pre-made and we think it's much nice too. The girls love it!
