Duck House

Coveside Small Wood Duck House

Coveside Conservation Small Wood Duck House, Model # 10120

Features:
~ “Dump nesting” occurs when a number of females lay eggs in a single house, which sometimes results in clutches with over 70 eggs. Mississippi State University did a study of Wood Ducks in an effort to reduce this problem. A smaller nest box was designed and “dump nesting” was reduced.
~ This box comes with a wire internal ladder
~ The front opens for observation and cleaning
~ Comes with wood chips as required for nesting material, which should be renewed each nesting cycle
~ Includes appropriate ventilation, drainage, and opens for easy clean-out
~ Sustainably grown 1″ thick Eastern White Pine provides superior insulation
~ Handcrafted with pride in Maine

Dimensions:
~ 17″H X 7-1/2″W X 15″D

Has side opening for observing and easy clean out. Stainless screen on inside of front opening for young birds learning to exit. This house comes with shavings because normally these birds do not bring anything but feathers to the nest. All houses need to be cleaned out before the next season starts. We suggest doing it in the spring so the birds can roost in them during the winter.
