Do any of you put little pond minnows or crawdads into your ponds for the duckies?? If so how do they do with them??

Key words there. They would most likely not make it through the first 20 minutes without being devoured.

They eat them.... They are goood treats though!

OK another ? - Can I put some teeny minnows in a swim bowl for my 2-3 week old ducklings??

That's something I have been wondering. On Nettie's list of treats she said to wait until 6 weeks... I'm not sure about the little ity bity ones, though!

I would wait until they are 12 weeks old. 8 weeks is probably fine, but again I prefer to give them the proper diet until they are completely feathered out. Just treat them with peas until they are old enough.
