One of them seems to feel much better. He started eating his feed, but he still has some diarrhea from time to time. I will continue the coccidiosis treatment and see how it goes. The one with the leg problem doesn't seem to get any better though. He started eating more but still not enough... -

There are pills. I crushed one and put it in their water. I was thinking of giving them both half a pill everyday since the pill has 50mg of niacin. I heard that duckling should get around 10mg of niacin/day so 25mg for both sounds ok. Should I change the dose or is it fine like this? Also... -

I went to 6 animal markets today and none of them had any vitamin b complex. I got them a complex of vitamin b that is meant for humans.Could this work? Ordering it online isn't an option because if would take weeks to arrive from abroad. -

The thing is that she's still refusing to eat. I don't know how this can be fixed if she does't get the nutrients she needs. Can the vitamins help even though they are not eating properly? -

They are around 3 weeks. But they look a lot smaller than what I think it's normal for this age. Also only one of them has leg problems even if they eat the same things. Why is just one of them being affected by this? Also I don't see how the splint would help. Do you suggest I apply it to one... -

They only ate a bit from their feed and sometimes their poop looks normal and sometimes it goes back to being very watery. One of them can barely stand up and I am very scared she might not recover. At night I use hot bottles of water to keep them warm but here the temperatures are naturally... -

I only found out later about the niacin deficiency later, and now I use brewers yeast as i said in the initial post. The stores i went to didn't have have any niacin pills or drops. Is the brewers yeast enough? Is a leg recovery possible at this point? One of her legs is highly twisted inwards... -

I think they started having problems when they stopped eating their feed. Is there any chance for the leg problems to get better if i sprinkle their food with brewers yeast? -

Thank you so much for the reply. The treatment is called sulfadimidine and I put it in their water. They stared taking it only a few hours ago. I was feeding them chicken feed with 17% protein because i couldn't find any feed for ducks in my town. At some point they stopped eating their feed and... -

I have two 3 weeks old duckling. They refuse to eat their duck feed and have bad diharrea. One of them can't even get up anymore. I tried giving them brewers yeast but they aren't eating enough so it doesn't seem to work. The vet gave me treatment for coccidiosis without doing any lab tests, but...
