2 questions

Hi I have 2 questions
1. First what is the best food for my ducklings, I have been feeding food from TSC. I want to get a better food then what I am feeding them. I have a picture of it below.
2. They are about 4 week old and I am trying to put them outside during the day. Temps are 70-80 during the day. My question is they don't like me leaving them, should I just put them in there area and just walk away or do it slowly leaving them longer each day.

Your ducks are so so cute! Answering your Q's:
1. Your ducks are 4 months so should be eating grower feed(15% protien). I used Dumor or Purina gower/finisher(sometimes it is starter/grower and that works too). You should be able to find it at TSC.
2. I am not sure what you should do...as I never had this problem with my ducks. If it were me I wold just leave them out there. They have each other and they should be fine. Hopefully someone who has done this before will hop on. On the plus side this is kinda a good problem to have because it means your ducklings love you! ❤

1. The best feed for Ducks of all ages would be either Flock Raiser, All Flock Feed or a feed specifically designed for waterfowl like Mazuri, in addition to this adding nutritional yeast to the feed, one tablespoon per cup would be a great idea to help prevent future leg problems.

2. Set them out there a little bit longer each day, after a while, they will get used to being outside and become more independent.

I was scared for you for a minute there.
I am feeding a flock raiser like MasterOfClucker recommended.
