Mixed flock needs new to ducks

[PeanutnMono]

I just rescued 4 ducks.. 2 adult females and 2 that are 2 months old.

I need to know what to feed them. I have chickens and quail. But I know ducks have different needs.

I have chickens and chicks as well. I was told to feed all of them this food and offer oyster shell for the females that may need it.

I use an AlFlock feed for my Chickens. I do not have ducks. .
But my Alflock feed is suitable for all different birds in a flock. Chickens, ducks, turkeys, Guiney, and so forth.
My calcium is at 2%. So it is fine for most birds, except, laying hens, need additional. I offer cracked oyster shells free-choice. I have layers, and non-layers. (that is why is use AlFlock feed.)

I looked at your label, and it is similar contents.
The IMPORTANT part is Lysiene , for Ducks.
Both your label, and my Alflock contain Lysiene.

Here is a quick copy and paste from online.

Lysine is an essential amino acid in duck feed, crucial for protein synthesis, growth, and overall health. The specific lysine requirement varies by age and growth stage, with starter ducks generally needing a higher percentage (around 1.1%) than grower ducks (around 0.9%). Diets should be balanced with the correct lysine levels, as both deficiencies and excesses can negatively impact duck growth, feed efficiency, and health.

So I conclude, your feed is fine for Ducks.
Lets see what other duck owners think.

Thank you for your response! We just got the ducks today so weve been trying to research as much as possible as quickly as we can and your post was very helpful
