Hey y’all!

I’ve used it from hatch on. Has the perfect amount of niacin for water fowl too. I’ve just used crumble when under 6 weeks

Great choice on breed, pekins tend to be quite friendly vs other ducks. I mean any duck can be friendly with work but these babes generally just are, how are you enjoying their company? Don't they just warm your heart.

Yes, but I believe all flock feed is intended to be fed around the age of 6-8 weeks. I will check.

Purina makes an all flock pellet that is fine for all ages. Purina also makes a duck starter pellet.

I didn't know that! Could you provide a link to the brand?

I hope you are not feeding them layer feed, most duckling starter feed's do not come in pellet form.

It’s not layer feed! I made sure lol. It’s Purina Duck feed rated for young ducklings with niacin included. I had them on a duckling crumble but TSC had a better deal on Purina.
