woollyback 0 Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 I have a pond on my small family pheasant shoot and I have a few duck still left, I am regularly feeding them but I just wondered whether its possible to encourage them to lay on the island in the middle of the pond rather than around the side in some thick cover where they spend the majority of their time. Has anyone had success with some sort of nesting boxes or artificial nests? Quote Link to post
Guest Rod&dog Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 I have two ponds on my ground,, And ducksand other wildfowl both nest on both in the spring,,I dont tend to have any nest boxes insted flat our vermin controll on and around the banks and hedges leading to the water. Magpies and avians always a pest when eggs and young of game are about. Quote Link to post
