This keeps the ducks coming in bringing new mates and creates competition for the food. As opposed to dumping in bulk where when the foods gone they just bugger off elsewhere. I like getting mine into a routine. No afternoon or night feeding as the crafty ones know they can just drop in after dark in the cover of safety and eat away .

Put mine on a couple 15 sec burst a bout 730 and do a feed at 3pm maize is all gone time the ducks come in on dark.
