Can my muscovy ducks eat perch and crayfish from the pond?

Would it be safe to catch crayfish and perch from our pond to feed my ducks? We have TONS of perch in our pond so I figured that would be a good way to get rid of some. Thoughts? ❤

It could change the taste of the eggs and make it a little fishy. But I would try it! Maybe just as a treat. You have a good amount, so it should get divided quite evenly.

When I know I will be hatching the ducks' eggs (and not eating them), we give them feeder fish in their water which they looooove. Eating fish does impact the taste of the eggs as @Barred Rock Mama mentioned and not in a positive way.
