    Thanks for the quick reply. Yes it really is trying to act normal. Since this has started I've put him back on vitamins adding a powder to the water. It has only been a day and haven't seen any improvement. I'm hoping it makes a turning point the longer its on the vitamin water. Is that...

    Yea that's where the problem comes in. We have already called around and no vet within 100 miles deals with ducks. The electrolytes that we are adding to the water contain niacin along with a bunch of others.

    Nutri drench? Is that a flush or antibiotic? We got Runnings close by. They are limited on poultry items as they focus more on large animals.
