I don't have a picture of our whole setup but we used a dog kennel that we got from a friend that is 30 ft x 40 ft. It has two exit doors on it. We have a little pond that has a pump in it and a coop that is 5 ft by 4 ft (we are building them a new coop that's going to hook onto our chicken coop that will be 8 ft by 8 ft).

But here are our ducklings... The two that are Muscovy we just got on Sunday. The others we have had for about a week and a half.

Pickles legs are straight!!! Looks like (s)he feels so much better than when I first got her. The blue Muscovy is still a little wobbly, but she was swimming yesterday and doesn't fall as much.

can you believe that they went into their coop all by themselves last night after only one day living hereTheyre so smart! My husband was happy because now he doesn't have to wrangle them. Those Muscovy have sharp little nails.

 

[Miss Lydia]

Yes they do. They are actually tree ducks. So they need those claws. My Muscovy roost right along side my chickens. Just my Drake sleeps on the lower roost.

That's awesome they have learned the routine so well. Pickles legs are straight! Well that's awesome!!

Donna your runners are beautiful! I love Blu!

thank you. I think Blu is really pretty too because she's so different than everyone else. So many color combinations will come from my flock. Too early to start thinking of next spring. I'm holding back!
