Well I guess if the fish aren't too large they could have them BUT any time they eat anything other than their chick feed they need chick grit. They don't have teeth to chew with so they relay on grit to grind up their food. Chick feed is made so ducklings chicks etc don't need grit but anything else they do. Even peas and tiny bits of carrot. Put a small bowl of chick grit out close to their reg feed.[not in their feed] they will use the grit as they need it. and remember treats are just that and shouldn't be given so much they don't have room for their main feed.
Okay thank you! Don't worry I've had a bowl of grit in the brooder since day one
@Ducklover3449 if she is still not able to lay try palpating her lower belly while she is floating to see if you can feel an egg. If you have tums or some other kind of calcium you might want to offer her some in some water.Ok, thanks for the advice!
The park where there are other water fowl? I sure wouldn't not with bird flu in the USA, It isn't safe to take out birds around wild water fowl even when there isn't bird flu. Cute harness though .Hey all! I have a Saxony duck, who I would like to take to the park. I found a Valhoma Mesh Chicken Harness - Hot Pink - Rooster online. Will this work? It is size medium and is said to fit a rooster. It is also an adjustable harness. It is around $17. Please let me know if this would be good to get her.
We've got 1 adorable little fluffy duckling!!!!! More to comeI'm very interested in her coloring. Will post a pic but her mom is WH and dad is either mallard or Pekin. Her colors don't match any of them tho!
