Please help me make these 2 ducklings survive

[Duck mommy 2019]

since you cannot get normal duck food (which i highly recommend) here’s what i suggest for a homemade duck feed (i still think pre-made is much better though, which is what i use)

- oats
- flaxseeds
- chia seeds
- barly
- sunflower seeds
- scrambled egg
- mealworms
- cucumber or romaine lettuce
- poultry vitamins
- niacin
- SMALL amount of cracked corn
- a little bit of fruits

They are still alive and energetic and still no weight gain. Free range usually able to gain weight fast but these 2 makes me struggle a bit. I will try the cat food option and see if it works.

My oldest female duck hatched 3 eggs, so I have 3 additional ducklings. She have a good record of being a good mother but I decided to give those 3 to the box so the 1st 2 wont be lonely.

Crush the cat food they are probably too young to eat Whole. And they will need grit.

Update, Only four of them are left. They are bigger now. from six they dropped to 4. 2 died of niacin deficiency. The survivors got niacin now because I feed them beef.
