I would say at least 2 weeks, probably going on 3.

One thing I've found that helps keep things cleaner is don't give them access to food and water at the same time. I know some will argue otherwise but I've raised my share of ducks with no problems. Feed them and once they get full and are trying to choke it down, remove the food and give them water. Otherwise you are in for a big, fly infested mess.

Hmm.. Soo.. No bread eh? I looked that up and it said that a main bread diet id unhealthy. They'll be eating other things too.

Are mealworms okay for them? Dried or alive?
