Outlander Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Hi , can anyone point me in the right direction please as Ive got the chance of a very small pond 20x10 feet approx , is it worth the effort for a few duck next year. I have very little idea of what to do or how many, been searching PW but cant seem to find much info on very small ponds. Thanks Outlander Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sako751sg Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Ducks can pick the smallist splashes as favourites so try a bucket of barley,wheat etc on the edges and check it now and again for signs.Dirty water,feathers and general disturbance of the bottom are great signs and if you see them keep it well fed.The one we were at on Saturday isnt much bigger and we had at least 50 come in,a mixture of mallard and teal.
