2 week old Pekin legs??

[Here come the ducks]

Hi everyone I have 12 days old ducklings - 2 Pekin , 1 Cayuga and 1 Buff.
They have been to the vet and everything looked good as per vet ... however my Pekin who is quite large , her legs barely look like they can hold her up.. is this normal? She is on Mazuri waterfowl starter and so I know she has enough niacin - but it almost seems her body is too big for her legs.. she really waddles and wants to sit every chance she has.. does this sound normal ? I am trying to see if they are bowed - it is hard to tell bc she is so big !

Pekings generally require a higher niacin content than your average duck because they are mainly bred as meat birds, therforeneed to grow quicker and bigger, and each bird also reacts differently, check out this thread on niacin

I would supplement your feed with added Niacin.
