I’m sure it’s probably fine but I’m not sure if give it that often. Idk. How much would you be giving them between how many birds?

I give them probably 1/2 to 3/4 cup for 6 ducks

I think that’s be okay but I’m not sure. I don’t think I’d do it too often though.

Peas! They loveeee peas!! And green bean! You can warm them up and they will love it! Well my ducks do. I would like to get some recipes from other people on their duck mashes and treats tho!
(In the summer my ducks love hunting minnows in their dirty pool!)

Yep! I give them peas or green beans at night with water and say “soup for ducks” and they all come running. I guess I would do warm water in their soup for ducks. I really want to try the minnows for them. Where do you get them at?

I get them at bait and tackle stores and we live in a co

I get them at bait and tackle stores and our town is a small country town so our gas stations actually have them! Like if you have a Lucky 7 that’s the gas station I get them from. But at bait and tackle stores you can just get mixed minnows and mine literally hunt them! The minnow will pop up out of the dirty water and they will bolt to the other side! I usually do it when it’s dirty because it’s more of a hunt. They do not like to swim with them or else they will like jump and be all grossed out (mine look grossed out!) and that’s bath time when the water is clean so they don’t want minnows in there. (Atleast with my ducks.) i wish I could post a video because they are soo funny to watch!!
Well they absolutely love them!

Hi! It’s really cold in Minnesota right now and I was trying to think of a treat for my ducks...
Can they drink peppermint tea or any tea?
Thx Alli

Hi! They can drink some hot water infused with fresh herbs, just not tea bags. Enjoy!
