I WOULD like to get the best food for my flock...the only place I can get the Mazuri product is direct from Mazuri. So a 50lb bag is $68, including shipping. OUCH! No TSCs or other grain stores have this or Purina duck. Amazon even charges more.

The Nutrina All Flock IS available locally, so I will try that brand, if recommended.

Thanks for all the feedback!

That's what I use, Nutrena All Flock Feed. Love it!

How is your duck I don’t remember seeing an update?

Thanks for asking. According to the vet, she is doing better. They are giving her calcium injections. He said she still laid a shelless egg this morning, but that she was finally eating (the Mazuri product, hence this discussion).

I now have the calcium glucanate for future emergencies. However, it would be hard initially to determine which duck is laying a soft shell or shell less egg. And, if there was an underlying issue which caused poor Pearl to be so unwell. The latter has yet to be known.

Getting a better quality feed is a good step, I believe. I've been getting Dumor 15% grower/finisher because my chicken neighbor recommended it. It's about $16 for 50 lbs. so compared to other brands, it may not be the best feed for my flock.

I’ve never used Dumor but just recently read some recommending changing from Dumor to Purina Flock Raiser also heard great things about Nutrena.

I hope they can get your girl feeling good and get her eggs normal! I’m glad you were able to get the cal glu.

It's funny, I've had ducks for almost 5 years and I learn something new EVERYDAY.
