Title: Ducks / Wood chippings
Post by: PJB on October 04, 2012, 04:23:13 pm

Just a general question, my duck area is very muddy due to recent excessive rain fall
Wanted to dry out area a little so was thinking about Wood/Barck chippings to dry and dry
it out.  Would these be harmful to the ducks if they ate them?

My post - duck enclosure - also covers this and might be worth a look!

I was told not to use bark chippings for ducks as they try to eat them and they get stuck, especially from treated wood.
