Unsecure chicken perches

How many muscovy ducks could you get in a duck eglu?

[karlotta]

I would say Muscovys are far too big for an eglu.... Sorry.

Karlotta - just for clarification - is it the eglu that is too small or the run (or both)?

 

Alex - how about miniature silver appleyards or call ducks?

yeah, its just i am trying to decide which duck breed is best for me.

Alex - maybe you should be looking at a duck house that is not an eglu? Don't get me wrong I'm sure the eglu would be good but a bigger house (with a taller door) could mean more choice of ducks. I have Cayuga's which are lovely (I am biased of course) but they are rather big. Very hardy though and relatively quiet.

Agreed, they are big ducks

 

Call ducks, black East Indies or Mini silver appleyards would be ok

Hi

 

I have had call ducks and indian runners in a eglu classic and i have also had appleyards and aylesburys in a cube.

 

 

Hope it helps

I think both would be too small. I have my runners in a Gree Frog like yours and can't imagine them in an eglu never mind great big chunky Muscovys.

 

 

.... and i have also had appleyards and aylesburys in a cube.

 

 

How did they get in? Or was it without the wheels etc?

Karlotta: it was without wheels when they lived in it
