The cages have held up well, some of the original cages when I was trying to figure out the design are 3-4 years old now. Crazyoldgooseman yes those are East Indie ducks and Sebastobol Geese! I also redesigned the cages to use 1 2x4x10 instead of 2, time will tell how those hold up but so far they are looking good. Instead of ripping the 2x4's in half I now rip them in 4 equal pieces that are 3/4" thick and screw them together, the new design doesn't fold but are lighter and easier to handle plus are half the cost to build. Here is a pic from the end of the season.
