Shortly after we moved onto the property, Chris and Elizabeth Coats brought us five of their Muscovy ducks to start our duck flock. Since the property was vacant for so long, there were wild predators around, and we needed a protected place for the ducks. We found a place just down the road in Seguin that has free pallets available all the time, and we scraped together some pieces to build a makeshift “duck house”…complete with “Duck” (brand duct) tape.
