But any ways:
Since he is 10 weeks old.
I still have him on Dumor Starter-Grower feed.
What food should I use now???!!?
I would prefer Dumor brand since I have been using it and believe it to be pretty reliable.
(Notice I did say PREFER- that doesn't mean it can't be another brand.

Thanks Guys!!!

Dumor makes a grower/finisher feed. I reckon someone on the Duck Forum has used it.

I am currently using Blue Seal Organic Layer pellets (plus a variety of extras) but I have an all female flock, so you do not want layer feed.

Thanks!
I will will try to find a local feed store to buy some!
How old should he be before he needs ANOTHER type of food?
What next?
 
I think the grower/finisher is what he will be eating from here on, I know that Blue Seal makes a "Grower Cal" food that I had my ducks on for a short time when they were taking a rest from laying. But they lay so much for so long, they get depleted (my feeling based on what I see), so I feed them layer pellets to build their calcium reserves back up, and it seems to have helped.
 
But you think just the Grower-Finisher for my "Boy"? (At this point I am 99.9% sure it's a boy.)
Also Are there any supplements I could add to make him healthier?
(He is very healthy now but I only want the best of the best for him!)
 
Fresh greens are good supplements, and I keep some poultry vitamin-electrolyte-probiotic powder to add to their water occasionally, especially when they have been stressed by changes or heat or cold, or if they are molting, or someone seems puny (where I grew up, puny means not feeling quite well).
