Hello all.
My ducks have recently run out of feed, and while I would like to get them some soon, I don't feel I will be able to get them any within a few days. Is there any suitable temporary replacement I can feed them in the meantime?
I have tried feeding them white rice and some of my Chinese vegetables, however they refused to eat it. They would take a few bites when I put some in their beaks but wouldn't bother to eat any they dropped on the ground nor in the bowl I offered them. I tried giving them a few greens from the backyard, they chewed at it before but won't do it now. In desperation, I gave them a bit of garlic, and the wet bread my parents gave them. No bueno. I gave them a bit of mozzarella, and they did eat it at the very least, however I don't think any of this would be a suitable replacement for feed.
Is there any common household foods I could feed them that would temporarily meet their nutritional needs for a few days?
