We feed the hatchlings oats and rice flakes, with warm water to make a gruel, to start with, then quickly move them onto duck starter mix from Cityfarmers.
And we've had problems with crows too, and lost four out of the last clutch of nine. No real answers there, except that Hansel and Gretel will get better to defending the little ones.
