Great video,all facts, really appreciate the info and how it's presented. I also appreciate camera mounted vs handheld, and the area filming wasn't crowded!
Tip: don't use pine shavings, as the resin is aromatic and very difficult on their respiratory systems. Kiln-dried pine can be used in a pinch but drying/heating doesn't remove the irritating resins. Over time, this can cause respiratory distress and make them more prone to infection. Also, the best foods that I've found are Kalmbach natural duck food (with yeast) for little babies and Mazuri waterfowl maintenence for older ones.
Purina Start & Grow Medicated is what I'm using for my ducklings. Purina S&G Medicated does not have an antibiotics, it contains amprolium which has been tested on ducklings and proven safe. I'd prefer another brand, but i saught this out for the coccidiostats. So let's not go assuming every Medicated feed could kill your ducklings.
Good to know. Im forwarding on the advice of best practices that I learned as far as whether or not to feed medicated formula to ducks. Even if possibly it would work I never wanted my ducks to be the guinea pigs for whether it works or not, so thank you for showing your experience with it. Another insight here.
