Chicken and Duck Brooder Area

It was hard to find information on duckling or chick brooder areas.  We saw designs that were made from wood, plastics, cardboard, and expensive ones you could buy online.  Considering our ducklings and chickens were only going to need indoor housing for a few weeks we did not really want to construct something.  Both started out in large blue Rubbermaid containers, it only took 2-3 weeks for them to outgrow these.  The cardboard would be inexpensive and easy but as soon as it gets wet the game's over.  You couldn't clean the cardboard and we needed something we could clean to keep our house smelling fresh.

Here's a video of our enclosure:
