Hello! I have 9 ducks and 9 chickens. They each have their own coop, with a 16 ft covered run in the middle that they share. Their coop doors open in to that run. My questions are, what do you do to prepare to leave your ducks and chickens for a weekend away? Do you leave you coop doors open 24/7 a for a few days? How do you make sure your ducks have enough food? We have them on a twice a day feeding schedule right now. I am not worried about the chickens as they have a large feeder that hangs in their own coop that stays full for a few days. Should I get another feeder to put in the duck coop? Or just add more bowls of food? Any vacation prep would be great. We have never left the ducks as they were new to us this year. Thanks!
