    Fermenting Duckling Food

    It is Dumor Duck All Life Stages. I put it in a canning jar with water covering the top of the food by 3 inches. The jar was covered with cheese cloth and fermented for 3 days. I ended up tossing it out. Better to be safe than sorry. Thank you for responding and have a great day.

    Run Rebuild

    Looks like you have a great base to start with! I like the large chicken house and the yard has good space. We too, are expanding and added another run. We've only ever used 1/4 " hardware cloth due to snake issues. It's more expensive but worth the investment. I purchased a 100' roll of...
