Will a wild fox eat the ducks in your pond?

== == A fox will eat a duck if it can catch it. Try fencing in your yard if you have animals falling victim to a fox or catch the fox in a live trap and dump him somewhere several miles away from your property. Adult ducks, however, I find very unlikely prey. They can fly and swim which make them very difficult to catch. Foxes will go after eggs though. If you're raising ducks, and a fencing in your whole property is not an option, try putting a nestbox on a small "island" in the center of your pond (you can find instructions online) or keep your pregnant ducks in a pen. Keep the babies in the pen until they're old enough to fly and escape predators. Keeping a top on the pen is preferable so hawks and owls can't reach the babies. Any of those options will prevent you from having to kill the fox and should protect your pets.

How do you build a pin for flying ducks?

If you are planning on have a few ducks (4-6) a 9x9 square pen is a good size. the fence that you use should have a small chain link so ducklings can't get out. the fence shold be at leats 6 feet high, to dicourage ducks from flying out. Apen should also have a hutch, so the ducks can be closed in at night (thats when animals that will eat them come out) and a small baby pool can be added to the pen for bathing. (just remember that the pool must be cleaned weekly and emptied durning the winter).
