So she got it gave it to me because I have 1 week old runner ducks just hatChed he will not stand on his one leg the runners are so much bigger what can I do. I got some probiotics

He needs extra niacin get liquid b complex its at tsc but says 'injectable , for cattle and swine' (or something close to that)
but we give it orally to ducks who need a quick boost of extra niacin. you can put a little on his food
also you probably know to add 1 Tbsp nutritional yeast to every cup of the starter feed you are using , for all the ducklings

Should I do bandaid wrap to put leg in place?

It might be a slipped tendon. I would check out this article about a chick and how to treat: [URL="https://www.backyardchickens.com/articles/treating-a-chick-with-a-slipped-tendon-one-chick%E2%80%99s-story.69353/"]Treating a Chick with a Slipped Tendon: One Chick’s Story[/URL]
