First off feed is not grit...If the feed is made for both Ducks and chickens it's fine..Ducklings require a different feed from Chicks so if feeding a Chick starter? Add a poultry vitamin to the water till 3 weeks then put the Ducklings on a poultry finisher if you can't get Duck specific feed..

Oh see that's what I thought everyone was saying ok so the second guy who helped me was right? No chick starter. I'll have to take that back but they haven't been having it. Yes the bag I have has ducks on the bag it's for mixed flocks. Ok so I'm doing the right thing lol. ? Can I give them wheat bread in small amounts I have read yes and no so I wanted to ask first.
