Black diarrhea Help

[Ally2u4me]

I had to change my duck food from 24% to 20% because only feed store we have was out the 24%.... Now one of my ducks has really bad black tary diarrhea.... They do free range during the day outside when i'm home.... They around 5 weeks old....

That does sound like it was caused from free ranging....Keep an eye on it...When they free range the poop can look pretty strange sometimes....Provide water stations for them as they free range...

Best wishes...


Cheers!

Whenever my ducks have spent a lot of time "helping" in the garden beds, their poop is always black from all the delicious dirt they eat. Could your ducks have gotten into some fresh dirt?

What they eat isn't much different in what we eat in how it affect the digestive trac. We can be pretty smelly to at times too.
