I need directions and a blueprint for building a mallard duck house.Does anyone have a good website?


I need to know the dimensions for the house, as well as how big the hole needs to be for the ducks to get in. Thanks!

As someone else implied, I am not "imprisoning" ducks. I am building a house to put in the middle of a pond for them to have some shelter. Sorry if I offended anyone by making you think I was going to keep ducks as prisoners.

With no offense meant Mallards are strictly "House" birds; and certainly aren't strictly meant to be KEPT.

If you have rescued ducks that no longer fly; I assume you have valid cause for that effort?

With respect; SIZE pretty much might relate to the number of Ducks you wish to imprison.The Hole might not need be any larger than the size of a large watermelon.

I have to ask...To what purpose are you asking?

They aren't designed to be PETS; though certainly they do accustom themselves to humans.

See if this is what you need.

And as for this whole prisoner discussion; I suggest you name them "Smokey", "Gumbo", and "Jambalaya", because they are so good to eat.

I was actually looking for the same. I haven't yet found a blueprint, but thought maybe this website would give you some ideas. This is located in England. I haven't even been able to locate them in the U.S. at this point in my search. Good luck!
