Provide Leafy Greens and Vegetables

4

Supplement your ducks' main feed with fresh greens and chopped vegetables daily. This adds variety, extra vitamins, and valuable enrichment to their diet.

Why It Works

Ducks are natural foragers that thrive on diverse plant matter. Leafy greens like kale, romaine lettuce, Swiss chard, and vegetables such as peas, cucumber, corn, and green beans supply micronutrients that complement a pellet-based diet. The foraging behavior also reduces boredom and stress.

Tips

  • Avoid iceberg lettuce, which has minimal nutritional value.
  • Wash all produce to remove pesticide residue.
  • Chop tough vegetables into small, manageable pieces to prevent choking.
  • Float greens in water to make feeding more natural and engaging for ducks.
