Thanks for the help everybody! I will get some dog food to feed him and try to up his protein intake. My dog eats taste of the wild brand wetlands that is made from ducks so probably not a good idea to feed him that! Any suggestions on a specific type of dog food?
The duck is about 6 weeks of age. I’ve been giving him dried mealworms and have also been allowing him to free range to eat greens and bugs. If it is a protein deficiency how long should I keep him separated until I try to reintroduce him into my flock? He has been separated for about 1 week now...
Thank you so much for your time and help. My pekin ducklings are currently with 4 khaki Campbell’s and 4 Cayuga who are all doing great. Is it ok if they all get the brewers yeast? Is it possible for the ducks that are doing good to get too much niacin? Thanks in advance.
Thank you so much for the reply! I will get the things tomorrow and start correctly treating my duckling. Should I use meal worms as a treat? Also, how long should it take for me to notice the duckling improving?
hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me out with a pekin that seems to have a “hunchback”. His hocks are slightly swollen and he his slightly bow legged also. We assumed this was a niacin deficiency so we have been giving them sav a chick electrolytes and have not noticed a change in this...
