Great thanks!Layer feed is specifically formulated to meet the nutritional needs of hens that are actively laying eggs, and it typically contains higher levels of calcium as well as other nutrients that promote egg production. While roosters and male ducks can eat layer feed without suffering any immediate harm, it is not an ideal diet for them over the long term. The extra calcium in layer feed can build up in the bird's system and potentially lead to kidney damage or other health issues. Additionally, the high levels of calcium can also interfere with the development of the reproductive systems in males, especially if they are fed layer feed constantly. It's important to provide roosters and male ducks with a balanced diet that meets their nutritional needs, which may differ from those of a laying hen. A good all-purpose feed that contains a balanced blend of protein, vitamins, and minerals is typically best for male birds.
