gosling care supplies

[sayyadina]

I'm getting 2 goslings & 15 ducklings in a couple of months, and I was wondering what supplies I need to have on hand.

Feeding
What duck feed? Our local feed store had Blue Seal, and I can get Poulin if I drive a little farther. The closest Tractor Supply is over an hour away, so they're not an option.
Oyster shell & grit- any specific kind or size?
What kind of containers should I use for their feed, oyster shell & grit?

Waterer
Something that's easy to clean & fill and is durable (need heated & unheated)

Routine Medical Supplies
Dewormer (?)
Scale (?)
What do I use to give them the dewormer? (Oral or injection?)

First Aid
What do I need to have on hand if one of them gets sick or hurt?

If you can find duck feed that is awesome. Many people have a hard time finding duck specific feed. I do reccomend oyster shells. I didn't know there was different kinds. About the disease stuff I reccomend checking out Storey's Guide to Raising Ducks
