Title: Duck keeper in Shropshire
Post by: kathateria on July 06, 2016, 09:58:50 am
Hi all.I'm Kathy
I have 3 white campbell ducks. They lay daily.
I am looking for advice on how to keep the water clean-ish!

Have a pair of the same and agree with BiW, just change it daily. But then it only stays clean for a few minutes anyway! Ours have a drinker that is quite deep and they can get their heads submerged in plus a trug to bathe in. At least they can't poo in the drinker.

Hope you're enjoying them and the eggs as much as we do. Fab for baking lovely sponge cakes.
