Good morning, I have been wondering (as a first time duckling mammy) what age do I switch their food? They currently eat chick crumb and are around 4/5 weeks old.
After chick crumb what do they eat? I read somewhere, not sure if it's true, they will go on to eat growers or pellets.

All advice is great, thanks

You can put them on an All Flock or grower All Flock you never have to change and they can go on it now if you have chick crumb left mix it. As for pellets that’s up to you if you want to give them your choice. At around 6 weeks is when pellets would be good to introduce. once your females get around 18-19 weeks start putting out Oyster shell in a separate container from their feed. They will use it as needed for strong egg shells.
