The Definitive Niacin vs. Brewers Yeast Thread

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 

There's lots of advice spread around BYC, and the rest of the 'net about using brewers yeast and/or Niacin for your ducks, but there seems to be a lot of disparity about how important it is, what kind and how much to use, how and when to administer it.

 

Based on the various recommendations I've read, I expect there to be a considerable amount of controversy over these issues. Let's see if we can hash out some good guidelines for the beginning duck raisers like me.

 

Okay, I copy and pasted. So I'm lazy. I also have no opinion on this subject. I'd like to hear yours, and why you feel the way you do. smile.png

When evaluating data one should always consider the source and remember, no one wants to make illegal that which he wants to do.
