Grower/Finisher for Ducklings

[NuggetTheChicken]

I have 5 duckling, ages 8-10 weeks old. Can I switch them to grower/finisher or keep them on grower?
Thanks!

What kind of brand are you using and what's protein content?

I am currently using the Purina Duck Feed Pellets and they are 19%

Purina Duck Pellets is intended to be fed from the first hatch to when they lay their first egg, there would be no need to lower the protein or switch feeds, the only thing I would suggest is to start adding oyster shells in a separate dish once they start laying. You have a great brand, no need to change.

thanks, they only have this feed sometimes at my store, so that's why I was thinking about using the grower/finisher

Nutrena All Flock Feed is another good brand, that's the one I use for mine.
