18% Protein for Growing Ducklings

[Pollo Blanco]

Hmm, I guess I'll keep an eye on them. The feed store might have a lower protein feed too if I need it. Thanks!

I was working around Nutrina Allflock which is 20%

Scratch-n-peck organic with grubs is 16%

I think at the end of the day the best method of approach is monitoring how your ducklings do on a daily basis with the feed. I always do a quick daily check over all my ducklings to see how they're developing and if I need to adjust anything. Most of my duckling do fine on the 18% protein, but my Hookbills I noticed a trend that if I didn't start reducing the protein around 3 weeks I had a couple with angel wing. Once I started reducing the protein at 3 weeks for them I have had no angel wing issues since, but like I said the other breeds have had in the past I never had that issue.
