brewers yeast for horses can I feed my ducks it?

[holsdad]

Is brewers yeast for horses also suitable for ducks?

Do you know the brand? Unless it has something that's specifically formulated for horses, I would think it's fine for a duck.

Says it's 100% brewer's yeast so I would think it's fine. I'm reading other people saying they give it to their dogs, so I can't imagine it would harm a duck. You'll just want to use a different dosage obviously. About 1 tbsp per cup of food for ducks I believe.

Does it give the niacin content? that is the reason for using Brewers yeast is to give the ducklings the niacin they need . Another choice would be Nutritional yeast.

Thank you very much I have emailed the seller although I actually bought some.

Sounds good. Like @Miss Lydia you'll probably want to ask about the Nutrional value in regard to niacin as well. I'd be less worried about whether or not it was safe for them to ingest, and more about whether or not the yeast will have the Nutrional requirements your ducks need.

That I know it's 5mg for every 15mg.
