Hi ya.

I have 5 indian runner ducks, 1 male and 4 females. The females are about 15 weeks old and the drake is about 20 weeks old.

I have been reeding them duck growers pellets and they have been eating these like there's no tomorrow finishing their bowl straight away.

We had a big storm over the weekend which coincided with me changing their food to a mix of half growers pellets and half wheat as I read that is what they should be eating.

They didn't eat at all over the weekend, maybe a small amount and I didn't know if it was because of the wheat, the storm or the fact their food was wet?

I have changed their food back to just growers pellets and they seem to be eating this again.

What should I be feeding them? Could the storm have caused them to not want to eat?

Thanks for any help you can give, I'm very new to this!
