I got ducks!

[CJLR]

So yesterday i went to get some silkies from a lady who was moving 7 hours away and she had some ducks that she couldn't take with her soooo
Now we are the proud owner of 3 ducks

Does Anyone know what breed they are ?

purina flock raiser is a good feed, it’ll work for both drakes and girls. i give them a salad once or twice a day, and corn is good for gaining weight as long as it’s fed in moderation.

here’s my boys, for an example of what a healthy weight duck should look like. do you know if you have hens or drakes?

We were told that the black one and the white one with a lighter bill are hens
