As the weather begins to get nicer and you take your kiddos to a local pond or lake to feed the ducks and geese, please keep this bit of info in mind.
Feeding bread causes permanent damage to ducks and geese. They develop angel wing. They can not migrate or fly to avoid predators. PLEASE DO NOT FEED BREAD to ducks and geese. Cracked corn, corn, peas, mealworms, romaine lettuce, watermelon, grapes CUT into pieces, cantaloupe……are a few good options!
Wow, poor things. I had heard that bread wasn’t good for them, but I just thought it was because of gut health issues. Who would guess it would cause something else so dramatic? Thanks for the tip and reminder Suzi!
You are quite welcome, Vic…I didn’t realize it, either… 🙁
