We raise alot of ducklings each year, this year we decided on making a new enclosure for both the ducklings and plovers, both areas have a concrete pond with a pipe and tap for easy cleaning. They have bird netting over the top and wire at the bottom, I planted grass plants for them to hide in but as they were new they ate those ( so wait to duck season is finished then plant them). We have also put in a heat box for them to snuggle in at night, they love it.
Good Luck
