What do you feed your ducks?

[Painted Calls]

Watching all the feed crazy-ness unfolding in the chicken world made me curious. What do you fellow duck peeps feed?

I currently feed Purina Duck pellets.

My chickens and ducks Love bananas

Bananas are my chickens' favorite thing ever ever ever. Like a feeding frenzy if I put any out for them. The ducks' favorite BY FAR is watermelon. It's almost... disturbing to watch them eat it.

I feed my ducks whatever I feed my chickens. Currently, since they weren't laying all winter, it's a layer feed sans calcium.

My girls like occasional fruit, they go mad when they see a banana, rarely strawberries, grapes and blueberries. But I keep those sweet foods to a minimum. Occasional lettuce. Oats are popular, peas too.
The only more frequent treat is eggs/shells, and calci worms.

Oh man. The chicken feed thread is currently....

Same! I have had good success with Purina duck. What craziness is going on in the chicken world? I prefer to stay in duck land.

 

[Aunt Angus]

All flock, either Dumor or Nutrena. I add nutritional yeast still.

Don't ask about the chicken craziness. You really don't want to know.

Ok I just bravely dived into the chicken debates and I am.... wow.....Someone blamed Bill Gates?

My girls didn't stop laying this year but I expect they will next year

Where I live I can’t get duck feed so I feed
Pro stock chicken feed ( grower / finisher ) as I have drakes in my mix
I add crushed oyster shells on the side
We are in the middle of winter in Canada and my girls only took a short break
11 girls and getting 11 eggs
2 days ago I got 12 eggs so somebody had a double lay
I feed treats such as
Cat food
Meal worms
Peas
Fruit and in the winter they get a spring mix of salad for greens daily in the afternoon.
I also have added a bit of starter feed in for the extra protein for our harsh winters

I buy Nature-wise All flock feed and also some Nature-wise layer feed when they are laying.
