Marsdens produce two feeds for growing ducklings which are both formulated with the mallard in mind.
Starter Crumb - The Starter Crumb comes in a standard sized crumb form. It should be fed for the first 3 weeks.
Duck Grower – At the beginning of week 4 the ducks can change from Crumb to Duck Grower. The 18% protein diet will produce a strong mallard at 6 weeks, ready for the switch to grain.
Duck Starter and Grower diets will produce a well-grown and well-feathered bird at 6 weeks of age. At this stage the bird can move onto grain.
