Help my ducklings are balding! They are only three weeks old. It just started three days ago. At first I thought the ducks were picking at each other (I only have 2 ducks). It started on the neck, the front and the back. Now today i've noticed it's gotten worse. They now have lost spots of hair on other parts of their body. I looked some information up the first day just incase it wasn't the picking and some articles said it might be from their bedding being wet. I now worry and have been changing their bedding everyday. What could be wrong or anything I should do to help prevent and stop this?
I have been putting little amounts of Niacin in their water because one of my ducklings has leg problems. Could I be putting too much Niacin in to cause the balding?
