Building a duck pond, come inside the waterfowl aviary

Step by step building a duck pond, the pond size is 8x10 with drain.

[@janeneh.3093]

I must say I didn't think the pond was deep enough, but the ducks look like they are truly enjoying it. Good job!!!

[@sunflowercreekfarmstead]

thanks for such an informative video! will definitely be recreating this for our ducks.

[@lisakukla459]

This is a great design. I think I could probably even do this by myself. Thanks so much for sharing this. I really can't wait to get ducks.

[@captainscrew1252]

By far the best how to I have seen for this project. Thank you so much.

[@joelegrand5903]

I think you have the right Ideal, low cost, easy to install, easy to keep clean.

[@pampeoples]

Awesome video Jeff, thanks for sharing.

[@mikeluxton9969]

Great job! Those are some happy looking ducks.

[@crystalsilvers7052]

Loved the video! Thank you. I've been trying to figure out what to do for a duck pond and I think I found it!! thank you again.

[@kathyhism]

I love it! Simple nice to look at, Ducks LOVE it! Awesome job🏆

[@grace7701]

Thank you for making this video! I have been searching and searching for how to build something just like this for my ducks and finally found a video showing me how. Question though...as far as where the water drains out, it looks like you just have it draining out under the ground inside the run. Doesnt this cause backflow and so a mud pit inside the run?

[@chickenheavenonearth9430]

Wow! That is an awesome duck pond. I will be making one just like it very soon. Thanks for sharing!!

[@debbyyao1530]

I found my duck pond! Thank you!

[@frankiefernandez5252]

Wow. Beautiful and semi easy to build. Just a small solar sprinkler on top.

[@anthonycosby7630]

Awesome Aviary!!! I jst finished my new pond. Dug it into the ground and basically did the same thing but used fiber reinforced concrete. Has a small island that the ducks love to perch on. I put a very short clip of it on my channel. I will do what you did when I build the larger aviary. mine is only 25x25.

[@georgevalenzuela2489]

Great job! Thanks for the tutorial!

[@trailorsporthorse7379]

Thank u so much for making this! Exactly what i was looking for

[@tylachila]

I wonder how you built the blue pond you had in the beginning and how it stays clean!

[@donanderson9872]

JZeee, thank you for your instructions and the effort in making this video!

[@freewillchoice8052]

Awesome job! 👌thanks for sharing 👍🙏

[@amarsingh1882]

Nice job and great idea . Thank you from india.

[@tacobelle69]

Thanks so much for the tutorial, I’m excited to make one...I hope it’s as easy as you made it to look :)

[@Horselackey]

you have a very good system (having over 100 ducks I can tell!) With larger domestics, they would be clogging it with rocks they like to put in it...I had one with a drain... with larger domestics.... but with your ornamentals that looks like a great system

[@josealfaro9514]

Awesome! I love your work boy, I appreciate it. I'm sure your ducks are happy. Good day.

[@sushi1254]

I really like this a lot. Super simple. thanks

[@Mary-had-a-lil-farm]

Absolutely beautiful job! I really enjoy your videos, you do a good job explaining. I wish you would make more videos. 😁

[@jewelsoftime399]

Perfect! Thanks for the instructions. I had the same concept but didn't quite know how to implement it. You made it look easy.

[@rachelwebster2596]

Ok I like your video, very informative. The "Hello" at 8:05 was so unexpected I am still laughing. I was kind of hoping some ducks or turkeys or something would come over to drive you crazy because that's what happens to me ALL the time. tuba six=2x6 luv it!!!!!

[@chuckeldridge4981]

Awesome video thank you

[@HomesteadOC]

How are those mitered boards holding up? Seems like theyre going to stay wet. Where does the water drain to when its dirty and how long does the water last before you drain it?

[@joseluisbouzonmillar5762]

hermosos también los mandarin y los Carolinas...

[@caitlinshauna2667]

Thankyou going to crack on n get this in my garden 😁

[@jonanderson4280]

It was so satisfying when the ducklings jumped in even before the pond was full👏😁 But I felt like it was too shallow as the birds like to dive in.

[@nazmulmediauk3791]

Very beautiful

[@quailjailss]

country guy mating call @ 8:05!

[@christynemec6598]

OMGOSH- this is GReat!

[@rogerblauvelt367]

That is all good but the biggest difficulty in making a duck pond is waste management. Without the right water treatment u r dealing with a sewage pit in a matter of days. The pumping and filtering of water is the key.

[@angelapennock2639]

Health and safety gone out of window! Never cut a pipe using your leg as a brace 😱

[@BigDmike24]

Good concept. I want to do a similar pond. I think I will put my ball valve outside the run and drain it over the lawn. You did not explain how you kept the water clean. You did say you drain every 2 days. I don't want to do that. Thinking of adding a pump and filter so I only have to add water, not drain and refill. Good video you helped me figure out the drain. Thank you sir.

[@meandmyRC99]

Thanks!

[@nunyabusiness7623]

Any problems with the building in the background, draining your water towards it?

[@abbywebb2822]

Would you recommend just draining for colder climates in winter or is there away we can make this heated? My concern would be the drain freezing.

[@jase123111]

Great way to do it.. this is what I will do when I make my duck pond. But, your one looks a little too shallow?

[@nikkoshay5403]

I love this pool. I would make it 6 inches deeper so they could swim

[@joseluisbouzonmillar5762]

hermosos tus patos... me gustan los cara blanca... donde los compras.. gracias...

[@Iz0pen]

So how do you keep the water clean? Empty and refill every two days?

[@edwardclark8482]

Is that enough liner for it to be 18 in. deep?

[@libramagyk]

Thankyou

[@gregcripps7291]

Any issues with the ducks tearing or puncturing the liner with claws? Maybe it’s a Muscovy thing?

[@chelseawatson12]

Ducks have webbed feet not claws. Lol

[@regasony8188]

😂 Where do you come from? Nice to meet you to 😄 good luck good jobs guys 😎

[@JasmineCherie]

What type of plug are you using and do you have to walk in the pond to empty pond?

[@jzfloorman]

There isn’t a plug, it uses a ball valve, go to 10:05 in video and watch again

[@ryancoorey158]

Will their nails puncture the plastic?

[@mikegoddard5203]

How often do you need to change out the filters?

[@GuwahatiOrganicGreens]

Great

[@veefriend4201]

Nice pond video. I believe the tile drain has nuts and bolts, not screws.

[@deathsdollar2606]

I tried this and it lasts about a day before the ducks shred it! Unless you use a pond liner that costs hundreds of dollars and even then it will most likely get a tear from the ducks.

[@JafoolyPorchers]

Really dangerous way to cut!

[@UrKillinMeSmalls]

Can you email me a list of things i would need the this is a great video I hope I can do it as good as yours 😊

[@johnbrown2072]

my ducks constantly dig and make muddy water

[@sethmoore8812]

How large is your aviary?

[@jzfloorman]

24x48

[@turcanewyork]

I wish this pond would have been deeper 😏

[@mist4926]

Won't their toe nails rip the liner

[@AddamSolo]

muscovy definitely will

[@johng.8600]

Your gonna gash yourself with that sawzall

[@josereyes8792]

Sweet cun ghost

[@kommakazi06]

Is that the pond liner that is blue in the beginning of the video or did you dye the water?
