flock raiser for different ages of ducks?

[dansarahmartinez]

We just acquired a 10wk old duck and a 2 yr old duck. We already have a 17wk old. We need to buy another bag of feed. Should we put them all on the flock raiser which will last a while between 3 ducks or is it better to switch to the layer feed now? These are our new ducks. Any ideas on breed? The darker one has some orange on her feet. Thanks.

Do not put them on layer feed until you see that first egg; leave them all on the Flockraiser. Once you see that first egg, you can offer a side dish of oyster shell so the layer can get the calcium she needs directly from the oyster shell. Usually, the ducks that do not need it will leave it alone. Best of luck!
