🐔 Chickens & Ducks:
Live duckweed:
• Chickens and ducks love to peck at it floating in water or scattered on moist ground.
• It’s high in protein (30–45%), amino acids, and minerals.
Dried duckweed:
• Can be mixed into feed, crumbled over scratch grains, or soaked before feeding.
• Easier to store long-term and great during winter months.
Feeding tips:
• Introduce gradually if they’ve never had it.
• Offer in moderation, like a supplement,
not their only food.
Clean water access is important, especially if offering live.
