Ducklings

A "Perkin"duck would be a bad pet here. Perkins is a food distributor!

Remember the Pekins are likely to need supplemental Niacin because off how fast they grow.

Yeah i got a big container of the brewers yeast with like garlic in it off amazon for chickens/ducks. I just add a small amount to their food.

They are khaki cambells, one of the best layers

They seem to LOVE the water compared to the pekin ones. Once a day i clean out the tub they are living in ATM and I fill it up with water to let them swim around/ clean off and it cleans the tub out a bit. The brown ones go nuts in the water swimming around like lunatics and the pekin just kinda hang out in it and clean off

Dose is 1 Tablespoon of Brewers yeast to every cup of food you use!

It would have to be British if it’s “Perkin “ . They build the best Diesel engines in the UK .

OK, if i ever have a Pekin duck, her/his name will be "Diesel"!

Well its good that they built something better than the Austin Healy Sprite engines I had in the 60's! What a mechanical disaster that was. MG's too!

If the niacin is only 2 mg per tsp than 1 tblsp is only going to be 6mg.
They need atleast 55mg a day, a Pekin will need more.
What feed are you using?
