I have a duck that making the nest on the ground. I have lost 2 eggs, probably from mongoose. Anyone knows how to get the duck making the nest of the ground?
thanks

All the ducks I had in the past always made their nests on the ground.
That doesn't mean there isn't some way to get them up off the ground though...

Anyone?

Leave the nest there, but put a fence around it so the mongoose can't get in. Guess you'd have to fence in the duck if you wanted it to continue laying there and set on the eggs. Put a moat around the nest, ducks like water and mongoose don't.

you could try building a coupe up off the ground lock'em up for about a month and always feed them in it and provide nest box and they should lay in them. lock them up in their at night.
