Indian runner ducks are magnificent slug eaters so are invaluable workers on the field. They cannot fly so can easily be kept within an electric fence for their own safety. I move their enclosure around the field giving them a variety of forage. The fence can encircle two of the annual vegetable beds, where they clean it of weeds and slugs, manure it as well as providing eggs. When the ducks are moved on to new ground they leave the bed ready for planting out a new crop.
