This duck nesting box and nesting basket provides a safe breeding site for mallards and other wild ducks. Its shape, size and opening are specially designed for ducks, allowing the female to incubate her eggs safely away from predators.
To position it correctly, attach the basket approximately 30 cm above the water’s surface to four stakes arranged in a cross, or to two forked branches. The basket can also be secured to a floating board anchored to a wooden post.
