What kind of foods makes a good snack for ducks.

• Mealworms #1
• Peas #2
• Any kind of bug that you find in house or garden (mine love big hairy spiders
  
  )
• Diced fruits (no mango, avocados, no apple seeds)
• Watered cracked corn (mine would die for this)
• Other grains, soaked in water overnight
• Flowers: Dandelions, Marigold, Clover
• Herbs: Mint, Basilicum, Catnip, Parsley, Cilanto

Ducks really don't have favorite taste, important is that its edible and it comes from the »human«.

Yes...maybe if there is no added food...ONLY caned fruit and veggies!

Canned veggies generally have added salt and canned fruit has added sugar it's better to have fresh or frozen.
