    HELP! DUCK SWALLOWED METAL

    I need help! My one drake swallowed a tiny jingle bell. I’m worried about metal poisoning. Do you think he would pass this? It was a very small bell. I was going to feed him lettuce to try to flush it out. (As lettuce makes him poop a lot) any advice would be great. Thank you!

    What to feed ducks?!

    my ducks don’t like their food.. they’re not eating it anymore. They are only wanting treats, like peas, lettuce, mealworms, etc. I’m worried they aren’t eating enough. Is there something else I can feed them besides the pelleted food on a regular basis? (They are kinda spoiled tho ) thanks
