Ducklings

I have been googling and didn't think it was right to be a mault but wasn't sure how old they were,
It's been a long time since I had ducks I hand rested one many years ago after a rat got hold of it and it's mother didn't want to know, but this was 8 years ago, so I'm now back to basics.
We are hoping to get a run soon so they can go onto the grass because at the moment there on my patio

I have just found the label as to what's in the feed
Hopefully one of you lovely people can tell me if this is right, this is what they gave me at my farm pet shop
700

Looks like a fine food, and fine protein levels. Just be sure to get the brewers or nutritional yeast since it doesnt have the correct levels for proper growth

Some people have to order it online since they cannot find it locally.
 
We got our brewers yeast from our local feed store, but we may have been lucky to find it so easily.
Your ducks look very healthy. :)
 
I'm new to the duck owning thing too and one book I've been reading and can't put down is "Duck eggs Daily" by Lisa Steele. Amazon has it. Has all the info you need from Hatching ducks all the way to adult duck life. I really recommended it! I'm loving having the ducks so far has been so entertaining to watch them in their new pool!

Your ducks are so pretty. Thats my favorite duck book too. I love that its such current information from someone who raises her own ducks on a small scale for eggs and pets.
