Hey, I'm trying to transplant duckweed from a nearby stream into my pond, to add forage for my ducks. I'm concerned that the ducks are just going to eat it all before it has a chance to colonize. Any suggestions?

it grows fast enough that your pond will probably be full before the ducks find it
if not then you didnt lose anything because you have a stream nearby to collect more (but why are you worried about ducks in your pond but not ducks in your stream?)
also not an /out/ question

The ducks are domesticated and don't wander into the nearby streams.
Is there a more appropriate forum for these types of questions?

dude, duckweed is nearly impossible to get rid of once it's in. they won't be able to eat it fast enough as long as you put a big enough wad in there. most of the places you find it at it's invasive anyways.

I've done it. They will eat the shit out of it. What you want is a tank that they can't get into and grow it in there. Then just pitch cups of it to them in their main water reservoir. I've been. Trying to grow it for years and everything eats that shit. Fucking deer and raccoons keep eating mine even. It's honestly not easy to keep especially if you live where it can freeze in the winter.
