    Saxony Duckling Feet

    I have 4 different breeds of duckling. I’ve noticed the largest, our saxony, seems to have one of her feet more pigeon toed than the other girls(they’re all females). I feed them Mazuri Waterfowl Starter and add Thomas Labs Brewer’s Yeast w/Garlic to their feed. Should I be doing something...

    Layer vs Maintenance Feed

    Okay! Just to clarify, you’re saying if I use Mazuri Waterfowl Maintenance, I can simply add the oyster shells as a free range option in a dish for them, and there is no real need to get layer feed? Or should I have also layer feed and switch when they lay? I’m so sorry, I’m such a newbie! Thank...

    Layer vs Maintenance Feed

    Horse Tail Weed/ Mare’s Tail weed

    We recently moved to a house on a river and have just found there is horse tail everywhere, including now sprouted in the ducks run we just built. Does anyone know if this is toxic to them, or if they’ll be okay and leave it be? I know I’ve read geese are sometimes used in pastures to eat it...

    New Duck Mom, Grit Question

    I will get some pics ASAP! :) they are sooo cute. So I did buy some chick grit, and now my next question is how should I give it to them? They are about a week old, can they have finely chopped kale yet? And when are they old enough to forage in their pen for a little bit? Thank you much :)
