Thanks @thumper650
I know that’s just the way it is
I’d feel better if I just know who it was that did it aha

They’re all fine compared to last time when they were clearly shaken!

Hey!
I know I’ve asked this already- but my pool water is absolutely foul and it is getting a really thick coating of green algae and green algae bubbles and it really stinks! It’s multiplying like crazy by the hour
It’s not the toxic kind I don’t think as it’s not iridescent ect

Surely this can’t be good for the ducks to be drinking and eating?
Is it going to kill them? I can’t imagine the state it will be in over the coming weeks

I’ve thought about getting a kiddie pool for them & covering that pool over but no way to do that as they all jump in the water if we get too close

I believe you can buy alfalfa in bags, and it supposedly will reduce algae growth.

I use this in my pond in pellets I put in a small bag. But for large area these would work better. Sorry the link is so long tech dummy.
