I saw that ducks like to eat tiny fishes such as sardine etc...Can I give my drakes tiny fishes? And should I cooked them? And I'm concerned about the bones also I'm afraid it's going to be a high fat meal for drakes since drakes burn less calories than hens.
Hi guys I have a question..can u feed ducks mealworms? How many mealworms should u give to each duck? I have two 7 months drakes...And should I cook the mealworms with boiled water and give it to them with water or should I just mix dried mealworms into their dry food?

This a Manna pro duck feed I’ve been giving my duck lately, but it seems kind off.. I don’t know, there are some black spots there after looking closely, so I’m a bit worried. It doesn’t feel weird nor does it smell bad, but was there always black dots on the feed? I don’t know. I have noticed...
I’ve been looking at it for awhile now, but I can’t really tell. I don’t believe there is any, but there seemed to be some earlier, so I want to make sure just in case. Any help is appreciated!

I'm curious what everyone here does to lower the cost of feed. I have a creek out back and I'm considering buying some minnow and crawdad traps so I can supplement their feed.
I'm also considering setting up a black soldier fly larvae bin.
Also any clue how to make sure they get a balanced...
Please help!
it’s our first time having ducks, so we’re having some trouble. We fed her a lot of food that wasn't supposed to be eaten long term, but we’re doing our best to fix this mistake. Any advice is appreciated!
My eldest muscovy (15 weeks) has stopped eating his grower pellets but will eat everything else like worms, grass, fruit (gave as treats) but wont even touch his pellets anymore even though he use to eat the pallets fine. Unsure if he has become fussy and doesn't like his pellets anymore (fancy...
Alright, I am just a couple weeks into fermenting my feed and getting everyone on a schedule. But I'd like to talk to someone who has experience with it, as I feel I'm doing something wrong. I'm guessing it's my ratio of what I mix in, but I'm not 100% sure. I have laying hens, a turkey...
I've bought some live mealworms from a local provider, I'm really worried about feeding them to my chicks as I'm not really 100% sure that these are healthy mealworms. Can I breed these mealworms for another generation and then feed them to the chicks?
I'm afraid that some...

Last year in may one of my geese, consumed a washer and bolt/screw. She was rushed to the vet when she became lethargic and thus started chelation therapy. Within about a month and a half she successfully passed the metal and was back to being happy/healthy. I was wondering if anyone has any...
