Runner ducks eat sn...Have you thought about ducks? Runner ducks eat snails and are, afaik, generally considered "free range" types. Since they eat snails they reduce the amount of calcium and protein that you have to feed them. And they lay eggs.<br /><br />They are considered a more "gamey" type of duck in domestication. But so do those we shoot down in the wild. It's because they eat _real_ duckie food!<br /><br />Runner type ducks are more adept at dry land foraging, which is why they are kept by so many in the third world. No need for huge ponds to satisfy their needs, a runner duck only needs a stream to dunk in.<br /><br />You might have to train them to go inside at night if you have predators like the Tasmanian Devil (don't know if you have 'em). <br /><br />I also don't know how your pride/pack will deal with them. But getting egg layers into your orbit should, I think, be a pretty certain project.Quilly_Mammothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17233071648647457818noreply@blogger.com
