I’ve just got 6 3 day old Indian runner ducklings and unsure what to feed them. I have fine laying mash I feed my chickens and turkey crumble I feed my Guinea fowl. But unsure what to feed ducklings. Can I feed them fresh veggies? Eg lettuce, zucchini, carrot? Corn?
 
Leave off everything but good feed. Once they are around 2 weeks and you have chick grit you can offer a tiny bit of treat but it should be 10% or be less of their feed daily. And if you can’t get waterfowl specific feed then add nutritional yeast to their feed at 1 tablespoon to each cup of feed you offer. We love baby pics too.
 
Thank you so much. I’m off to the feed and seed stores to see what they have. If not I’ll get some brewers yeast!
