What should I be feeding my ducklings?
Posted on December 30, 2001
Question:
What should I be feeding my ducklings? They've been eating turkey and gamebird starter/grower, but the protein percentage (28%) is too high and they've encountered leg and wing problems. Do you know where I can find a 18% protein waterfowl starter/grower in crumble form?
Answer:
Never give waterfowl, poultry or gamebird feed. It is too high in protein and usually is medicated which is not suggested for waterfowl. We carry the Duck Starter and Duck grower by Purina. Chuck
