Hi guys
As you may have noticed I have made several threads on basically the same thing but I am just so confused!! Ahhhh
My 4 call ducks will be living with my chickens when they are old enough to go outside so that complicates things because there are certain things that the ducks need but the chickens can't have! My chickens are currently on grower pellets with oyster shel on the side ( for the layers)
1. As ducklings what percent protein do they need from 0- adulthood?
2. Niacin gotta be one of the most confusing things! How much do they need what food provides when can they stop being supplemented do they need it as adults or will they get it all from the ground they will have access to pasture during the day?
3. Will they be fine on chicken growers pellets with oyster shell as adults?
Thanks hope I will be able to finally get my head around it ! Hah
