View attachment 33422 View attachment 33422 so DNL and Lydia should I go back to feeding this until they are full grown then ? I was worried about the higher protein to prevent angel wing was why I switched to the other feed after three weeks. I sure never thought I would need a support group to have pet ducks lol!

i like the feather fixer, i dont think you will have any ill effects from it, i remember one time talking with Kathy (casportpony) about angel wing and i think we cam to the conclusion that it wasnt too high protein more than likely it is genetics

she has raised hundreds of ducks and feeds them all turkey grower which i think she said was 26%

Hey guys has anyone ever had to ducks co brood on a single nest? I have two KC that seem to be doing this. I thought the one was just keeping the broody one company but they are both garding the nest now and hissing at me. There are eggs under both of them but it looks like a long oval nest.

You remind me of an old man I know where I live, he is always telling me a .22 shot will fix anything ! Good thing I'm used to that kinda humor or I'd be in the safe space with the ducks!

I think 'fixing' you would improve you on so many levels....
