Crossing the Road
I have a silly question as a fairly new duck mum. (My two are young, but I'll soon be taking on a rescue duck temporarily)
What kind of grit is best for adult ducks?
Is mixed chicken grit suitable? It has calcium in it, so is that suitable, and would that be enough calcium? Or is it best to do basic grit and calcium offered separately? I ask because I can't find any grit without calcium in it. I'm a little worried about offering too little or too much!
Also I've heard people use wheat in the bottom of their water buckets, is that beneficial to do?
