    Leaving for the weekend

    We need to go out of town for the weekend. Is there blocks of food or something like that? They always have access to water as they have a pool and self waterer but I’m unsure what to do about food

    Help!! The mosquitos are out of control with my duck enclosure. I’ve planted lemongrass plants sprinkled cinnamon and have mint in there but nothing is working! What do y’all use? I literally came out with 30 bites today after cleaning the run!
