We very well might be officially crazy bird people.... A month or so ago we bought 2 little ducklings and 3 more chicks to add to our flock. We have 35 acres for them to roam but, to keep living quarters from being too cramped we decided to build a separate duck house. Ingrid got to breaking down pallets and started assembling our frame. We did vertical pallet siding trimmed with strips of underlayment. We framed the door with 2x2’s and did an OSB panel topped with the pallet and underlayment slats like the house siding. We were able to repurpose a metal frame something got shipped in into a little duck run. A black tub made for the perfect little pond that our ducks splash and clean in. We bought a sheet of green metal roofing to match the chicken coop we built a couple months ago. It was a quick, cheap build make of mostly recycled materials.
