I was given 6 2 day old ducklings, they are 10 days old now and all but 1 is growing. The 1 duckling is 1/2 the size of the others and walks like a penguin. She can get to the water and over to the food. Also can travel around the brooder but dose stop every few steps and plunks down to rest. I was told she might have niacin problems and so I went out to buy some to add to her water.
Niacin pills 100 mg, fast acting.
2gallon water container
I have a bantam hen that has taken them under wing and is with them all the time.
feed: fowl starter
Question: can I put the Niacin in the water that they all drink including the hen?
And how much would I put in?
I have had chickens for years but this is my first time with ducks.
If anyone could help me with this problem it would be great.
Thanks.
