I have a duck with a niacin deficiency and she is 9 weeks old. And we just started her on it today. I was wondering about how long until she will be better

Just niacin is not enough at this point. Get her started on liquid vitamin B complex ASAP. That is the only thing that can reverse damage already done. @Isaac 0 has created a very informative post about this issue. How do we find that Isaac?

It may take a week maybe shorter or longer. Depends on how long she’s been like this and how bad her legs are. So don’t get discouraged. Just keep it up. How are you giving it to her?

I gave it to her over treats and in water

i gave it to her on treats and in water but I am yet to give it to in her mouth as I am worried I would mess up and hurt her

Treats is the best way an since shes 5 weeks old give her 1 ml daily.
