Six healthy snacks for ducks
1. Sweetcorn
It turns out that ducks are quite partial to sweetcorn. Tinned, frozen or fresh. Obviously, remove them from the tin first.
2. Lettuce
As a nation we're guilty of throwing away a vast amount of lettuce, especially the bagged variety. Instead of consigning it to the bin, rip it into pieces and treat your local ducks. Rocket, kale and iceberg are all great choices.
3. Frozen peas
There's no need to cook them but make sure you defrost them first.
4. Oats
Flapjacks, rolled oats and even instant porridge oats will be a huge hit with ducks.
5. Seeds
Whether you buy bird seed or just seeds from the fruit and nut aisle in the supermarket, the ducks will be very grateful for these nutritious nibbles.
6. Rice
Ducks will appreciate a handful of leftover rice if you've cooked too much for your dinner. You can also use uncooked rice, both are fine.
