TAP WATER SAFE FOR DUCKLINGS??? HELP!!

[JNC]

Is it okay for them to drink tap water? Because I’ve been using my fridge water and water bottles. But I feel like I’m going through to many water bottles and I feel like it would be cheaper if I just use tap water. But i’m not sure if it’s safe for them. HELPP!

Does it have chlorine in it?I’d take a plastic empty milk jug fill with water and let it sit over night to get the chlorine to dissipate.

If the tap water is safe for you, it's safe for the ducklings.

We have very hard tap water and still give it to our birds.

My municipal water smells like bleach and my RO system can't handle more than three gallons of water at a time.
What about rain barrel water or a bucket of water from a large, clean fishing pond?

That seems like a good idea

I would consider testing the water for contaminants like lead before giving my birds any.

Pond water is safe for them. That’s what ducks swim on. If you use your municipal water then let it set for a day so the chlorine can go away.
