Chortle Chook Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 (edited) I've not had much success so far with feeding my ducks treats. They love meal worms and a bit of corn but that is about it. What treats do you feed your ducks? I've heard that they like spinach. Should I cut it up or feed the leaves whole? Also is there anything they should not have? Edited December 21, 2012 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mollyripkim Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Hi Daisy and Daffy will eat cooked pasta but really love rice, they had some bokashi bran with the girls tonight and like lettuce chopped up, I usually buy the little gem ones as they last a long time in the fridge. Other than that they gobble up pretty much whatever thenp chickens have with the exception of grapes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheeky Chooky Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I've heard that they like spinach Where did you hear that then Catherine? Thanks Amanda She's starting to come out of her shell a bit more Me going outside with spinach and sometimes dried mealworms is helping Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chortle Chook Posted December 14, 2012 Author Share Posted December 14, 2012 Many thanks guys - looks like my duckies should be very grateful to you all as their meal times are going to get a whole lot more interesting (imagine my duckies doing a little dance) Next up on the menu - rice and sweetcorn. I'll also chop up spinach and lettuce leaves for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blues08 Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Mine adore blueberries (can't remember how it started), they can be expensive but I try and get frozen ones on offer or past their sell by's etc, they get so excited, my runner does a little shuffle, he's hilarious, also, they like chives and the green parts of salad onions, kale and cabbage, raw, chopped except for leafy cabbage which they love to tear up and munch.

Chortle Chook Posted January 7, 2013 Author Share Posted January 7, 2013 Just found that my ducks go nuts for Lamb's Lettuce. Drives them quite quackers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
