    TSC Waterfowl Feed??

    Hey everyone. For those of you who use TSC for your flock feeding needs, what do you use for your ducks and geese? For summer and winter? We have been using a mix of rolled oats, BOSS, and corn for summer since they graze all day around the pond. Thanks!

    What Attacked My Coop??

    Looks like bite marks? We are thinking raccoon. One of our free range ducks, and two roosters (on three different nights) were killed and licked clean.
