Ducks deserve better than generic poultry pellets or stale bread crusts. That’s why, as duck-devotees, we created Lucky Duck.a nutritious blend of New Zealand grown ingredients carefully developed to keep ducks in quacking good health.

Ducks are natural foragers, pecking around for a diverse diet of plants, seeds and insect protein. We worked with an avian expert to replicate the nutritional profile of their ideal diet in a handy free-flow blend.

Feed Lucky Duck as a maintenance diet for backyard ducks or scatter on the ground for wild ducks. a wholesome replacement for old crusts – bread is like junk food for ducks and breeds dangerous bacteria in waterways.
