Feeding The Town Hall Ducks
The 1white (Pekin)duck and 7 white (Embden) geese are domestic.
We do not feed the wild ducks - the brown female mallards, the green headed male mallards or the Canada Geese. They need to keep their wildness by foraging for natural foods. They need to teach their young how to survive and if we feed them they will lose some of their abilities to find food naturally. Also once we start feeding the wild ducks and geese they bring more and more relatives to the pond and it becomes unhealthy for both the animals living there and the people visiting.
The Domestic ducks are feed daily
