Ah, mustard greens! - Forgot to list those. My ducks love them and they grow like weed(s). I have about 10 large zip-lock bags in the freezer for them. They like the greens even more when they were frozen. And its good stuff with many anthocyanines.Mostly their feed, which they actually eat Now. I give celery or peas as treats, and we recently got some mustard greens for them (although they don’t really seem to like them).
The last time i tried to feed them crumbles i got that »you really want to poison us?« look. They outright refuse to eat crumbles. They say that's what the chickens eat!I started giving pellets instead of crumbles and they like it much better.
How small do you give them/cut the leaves, if at all? I cut them somewhat large and they said no. I then cut them small and they still said noAh, mustard greens! - Forgot to list those.

Well, as said i have stuffed the fresh mustard greens as they were into those one gallon zip-bags and just threw them into the freezer in fall. They are now somewhat brittle now and when i break up a portion for the duck's supper bowl the plants break into little bits and pieces which they eat. I make duck-soup every evening in a square planter: Cat Food, Cracked Corn, BOSS, kitchen scraps, and some extra like Cabbage, Kale, Mustard-greens, cooked rice, pasta or bread. Within the soup the ducks eat almost everything.How small do you give them/cut the leaves, if at all? I cut them somewhat large and they said no. I then cut them small and they still said no
Yes, they can be stubborn, worse than donkeys.I got that look when they saw the bruise they gave me. They thought I was a different person
Mine didn’t eat the pellets for about a week until one day I went in to check on them and it was completely empty
They are hesitant with new things. Eventually someone will try a bite then everybody else will join in.
