What this sheet is for
Record the daily round for ducks and geese, whose water needs and predator risk are both different from chickens.
Who it is for
Keepers of ducks, geese and other waterfowl.
How to use it
- Count every day. Waterfowl wander further than hens.
- Record water changes separately from drinking water.
- Record shutting-up; it is the single thing that prevents most losses.
- Note behaviour changes — they show illness earlier than appearance does.
What is on the sheet
The layout is fixed at a size that fits both A4 and US Letter, so the A4 and Letter files are visually identical and print at full size on either. Rows are set at a height that an adult can actually write a date and a few words into with a pen — most printable tables are built in a word processor and never tested with one.
Questions
How much water do ducks and geese need?
No figures are printed. They need enough to submerge their heads and keep their eyes and nostrils clean, and how that is provided depends on your setup. This records that it was done.
