How Do You Build A Duck Pond?
Building a Duck pond is a great way to use a space that may not be suitable for flowers, vegetable gardens or lawns. Duck ponds are lots of fun and great places to observe wildlife in any season. These low maintenance water features are a great addition to any property and great fun for children. Choose an area with a natural slope or indentation. If you don’t have one, you’ll have to dig the duck pond to the size you want. Keep the dimensions adequate to the space you’re using. A duck pond doesn’t have to be terribly deep because you’ll feed your ducks yourself. Plan the shape of your pond by laying out a string in the shape you desire. Dig the bottom of the pond about 1 yard deep and level it at the bottom. Leave room around the outer edges for plantings. So, dig on the line you drew with your string planning for extra width for your bank design. Lay a piece of vinyl pond liner in the area you’ve prepared. Trim the liner to fit and tuck the edges into a trench dug around the pond res
