That’s a nice truck your dogs got there

Yup. If only he wouldn't drool down the side of it soo much!

 

They break because the nut loosens up from fat ass torque. The real solution is to get a bidet and do your asshole a favor.

 

Thank you brother Bill!! I phkd that up….

 

Yeah butt,

 

No they ain’t. Look on Amazon.

 

You seem to be well versed in some of the most unexpected things.

 

That shit will be cold as Hell coming from my well. Better yet the cistern; it's probably 20 degrees colder

 

Dog art!

 

I don’t want some cheap ass-valve blowing off when I ain’t home homie! I don’t trust that chit. On second thought, a simple ball-valve would soothe my concerns…

 

They don't. Alot of boxes built for bluebirds are used by other cavity nestets.

 

He is a Grand Shitter. I take his words as (crap) gospel?…..

 

I ran 30 boxes for songbirds 20 years ago using the lifting technique, thick metal wire to hang them off branches and use painter poles with hooks to lift them up/down to inspect/maintain them. Big fan of that method versus a ladder for small songbird and swift boxes. I bet wood duck boxes with ducks may get too heavy for that method, especially at taller heights.

I appluad your effort with the buckets and thinking of a cheaper method of applied conservation. One would think others would have tried buckets by now if they would work and be cheaper? If you try it I would not use glue, maybe try screws to attach whatever so the ducklings can climb out. I would also just screw them into trees and use ladders. Even if the hanging may work they would sway around a lot more than a natural cavity, possibly discouraging use. Also there is a decent chance you could drop them while lifting them down with a pole given their size, weight, wind, and height you would hang them at.

@Cooldood i guess there has been some research on it. Try to get these papers and go from there on your decision.

This one shows significantly higher use in wooden boxes.

Other species like mergansers in the mix.

Pain in the ass, huh?

Just a forum but they bring up an important variable with heat and overheating -they speak to personal experience
