Question about Pekin duck
I don't know if you were able to find a partner for your duck, but my Pekin lost her 3 siblings last fall (different times and unknown reasons) but I put a couple of mirrors in her house and penned area and she is doing quite well (at least it seems that way). She did quit laying after her... -

Crumbles vs pellets
My Pekins are about five weeks old. At what age do I change their food from crumbles to the pellets? I am feeding them Purina Flock Raiser crumbles right now and the bag is almost empty so if I am wondering if I should upgrade. They are a pretty good size and starting to turn from yellow to... -
