pbfhpunk Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Hi We're moving to a new rented house this week that has a stream in the garden can we get ducks and put them in or do we still need to get a house for them. or could we jsut get sometinhg like this http://www.forshamcottagearks.com/ControlFiles/Graphics/Products/Mallard/Mallard.jpg so they're still pretty wild but we're looking after them at the same time. To be honest, no really seen the stream although MIL has a had a look and said that at the back of the garden there's an archway and steps down to the stream. is it possible theres' already ducks on it and we can just encourage them to hang out in our garden with food and treats!?!! Thanks H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 There may already be ducks around so you could try enticing them with food? (as long as they are wild and don't belong to someone else! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cordelia Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 How lovely....we have a tiny trickle of a stream at the back of our garden...more like a ditch in reality....I'd love ducks....indian runner ducks.......but unfortunately I think our neighbours have enough with us and our chickens best of luck ...

pbfhpunk Posted April 3, 2009 Author Share Posted April 3, 2009 Went to the house yesterday and introduced ourselves to the neighbour, we said about the chickens and he asked if the hosue was fox proof as the owner of the house we're renting had some ducks and they all got killed by a fox! Not a good sign, any good fox proof housing suggestions? H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
