I used to have 42 runners and they would peck and graze on anything and everything, if they didn't like it there would be damage from them trying it but on the whole the plant in question would end up with quite a bit of damage from them trying it but would survive. If they did like what they pecked at it could sometimes be gone in quite literally minutes.
posability that they will have a go, chicken wire and canes to fenc it off till it gets going will help
,,,,won't they just flyover the top?
I've never seen them fly....but boy can they run !!
The clue is in the name, Runners.
Apart from a tendency to run a lot have they had their wings clipped?
Clipping is simply shortening the feathers on one wing, a mate of mine got it wrong and did both wings then wondered how the ducks managed to fly away.
I did a long hard day yesterday, then got home at half eight last night to find I had an email postponing today’s job until next week, which is why I have sat down for a couple of hours and ended up wasting time watching a video of Indian Runner ducks trying to fly, they don’t really crack it, but look like they could clear an obstacle.
I have only ever seen them running.

Actually these look more like the Indian Runners I have seen rather than those in theat video.

On the plus side, they are tasty.

They might be tasty, but you have to catch them first.
