Hahaha and I thought we were crazy for going from 2 ducklings to 11 glad to see someone else caught the same itch!

Good morning y'all! Quick Q - how much does everyone feed their ducks? Not including treats/extras. My group always acts like they're starving and tbh two of them are probably on the chunky side. They get around 1c of feed + treats + foraging the majority of the day.

Good morning 3x, have a great day

I used the same basic formula I use for chickens. ~4.5 oz per bird per day plus the extras you mentioned.

I leave food 24/7 that way they get bored and eat less. With designated feeding times, they were crazy hungry and ate more food. Could be a stress thing? I just adopted a starving cat or she adopted me, and she's food crazy.

Okay this is going to sound really odd but... does anyone have photos of the bottoms of their ducks feet? I've noticed mine seem to have like excess skin that I haven't noticed on other duck feet pics I've seen (looking at bumble foot photos and doing bumble foot check today)
