Hello
I have a duck that is about 2 weeks old and has very bowed legs(on both legs) she’s having trouble walking, and her feet step on each other. She also trips over her own feet. I know this can’t be comfortable for her, so I was looking for some advice and help on what the next steps could be to help her get back on the road to recovery. I thought it was niacin deficiency but I was giving her water that I had put niacin powder in. I have been giving her about one quarter of the pill powder. It has been about a week with no signs of her improving. She is not getting worse but is not getting better either. She is still eating and drinking. What is the best thing to give her?
I will attach photos of her feet, and what niacin I have been given her. In the last picture she is the one in the middle.
