Duck feed recipes

[Sodbuster87]

Just wondering if anyone has a recipe going to be getting set up for bulk feed and just wondering what people are mixing for ducks. I am currently buying hen scratch and just looking for something better. Thanks , Sod Buster.

Hello..You can add poultry finisher feed..Scratch isn't balanced enough on its own.

Also Purina makes an All flock called Flock Raiser it is formulated for all poultry including water fowl.
Scratch should be used only as a treat.

I feed scratch for Ducks mixed into my Duck finisher.
My feed is 50% Duck finisher, 25% Old style scratch and 25% oat and barley crumble. Plus veggies..

I have never seen scratch like what you have. @chickens really

Oh...It's called Old style and not cracked grains and has way less Corn..

Yeah cracked corn is about all I have seen I don't buy it. I did buy whole corn for winter treats but lately have stopped giving it. Just BOSS and Meal worms now.

This is what it looks like...

Too bad they don't have something like that around here. Cracked corn[scratch] and whole corn is about it unless we buy bulk and make our own but then finding all ingredients can be a pain unless having shipped and that is very expensive.
