I do this and then put a crawfish tray underit. My brooder stays pretty dry, for ducks that is.A kiddy pool would work too. They make great brooders and being you have Pekins they can use the space @DuckyDonna and @Isaac 0 both use kiddy pools maybe they will share pics and using a catch tray like pic shown and something like this nice thing about this too is you can go with shallow bowl for young duckling and deep bowl for larger and lid fits both.
