Can anyone help me with feeders? my almost 6wk old calls REFUSE to eat out of anything but this



I tried upgrading and they wouldn't eat! now, i know ducks hate change, but seriously? i mean they can eat out of it but really, your sorta past chick sized feeders lol

I use the long chick feeders with the holes in the top. You have to fill three or four times a day, but the ducks cant get the feed all wet and packed in the feeder with them. Ducks are just messy to raise when you have them in a confined space.

Ducks are just messy, period. XD
