adults or ducklings, it's okay, though there is no reason to feed it if you don't have coccidiosis issues.

its so they can have good nutrition, i used ti feed just corn, and bc i'm just looking for new things they might like

I just got new bags of feed yesterday so I figured out the exact protein I'm giving so I could tell you just in case you were still curious on what I'm feeding

So I give them this 20% chick feed its not medicated and it can be fed to ducklings and chicks it contains yeast and probiotics and lots of other very healthful ingredients.

And it gets mixed with this scratch which is 8% protein it has corn and other grains to give a good balanced diet.

(Sorry if you saw the first picture it was totally wrong XD)

So each bag is 50 lbs and they both get mixed in one feed bin and my flock does absolutely best on this brand and mix I've been working with and i sometimes I add supplements in the feed or water and of course they have constant oyster shell which my geese eat a lot of since they lay such enormous eggs but my Muscovy drakes eat quite a bit of it th and they free range every day sunrise to sunset and they have a creek and a few pools to swim in!

I already know about the free range thing, I've been free ranging longer than I've been putting them up at night.

Thanks for all the information pout

I'm not totally sure but I thought you weren't suppose to feed medicated chick starter to ducklings.
