Black oil sunflower seeds? My muscovies love them! They follow me around as I fill bird feeders just waiting for some to drop. My chickens do the same. So are mine the only ones

Our ducks love black oil sunflower seeds. We have just recently started sprouting some jars of sunflower seeds as well, the ducks really enjoy the fresh sprouts in the wintertime!!

I like that idea of sunflower sprouts and will have to try it. I also like your avatar, Bligh. And

My ducks love BOSS. But I have read that feeding them too much is not a good thing, nutritionally I guess the BOSS lacks a bit. But mine love them and they also love the sprouts

Will your ducks eat onion skins?

Mine LOVE them and they are very good for them.

The ducks are neutral, the chickens ADORE them! and i too have heard they are good for them.

This is some info for them pertaining to laying hens but anyhow..

I treat the flock daily with BOSS and they ALL love it, the chickens, ducks, geese, and turkeys. It's a special time for them because some of the flock eat from my hands while others just eat it on the ground where I toss it for the shy ones.

Cool Im not alone my ducks usually aren't very excited for treats since they are free range but I guess being winter there's not much around to find. As for the onion skins my geese will sometimes but usually nobody eats them.
