Sooo I go through some brewers yeast. I have a hard time finding it locally in anything bigger than a jar and the traditional web sites don’t sell it bigger than a 5 pound bag. Has anyone ever heard of these brands? Or have any suggestions and where to buy it in bulk?
I’m posting pictures below of some options I found after googling. 1 of them is advertised for brewing beer, and the other is advertised for cattle and milk production but says it’s suitable for poultry as well. I’m need it for my 8 ducklings. But neither say anything about niacin.

First 3 pics are for labrew farmhouse (for beer) and the last 3 are kalmbach brand for cattle and poultry:

I use 5lb bags of Josh's Frogs brand Brewer's Yeast [I just last week bought 3 x 5lb bags for Grand Total: $77.19 including tax and shipping, directly from Josh's Frogs https://new.joshsfrogs.com/

I haven't heard of the brands you mention. If there is no mention of niacin, that's a worry -- particularly for kalmbach brand for cattle and poultry. Is there a contact for customer services [email/phone/ or website]? If you can contact the company, ask them what is the niacin content.

Good luck!

I found this on the website:

The content PDF only says "B vitamins"

But it is in 50lb bags. I would be concerned that it would get stale before 8 ducklings had eaten even 25 lbs of it!! The Chewy website says: The shelf life is approximately 150 days.

Well I should say I have 8 ducklings (2 are basically adults) and 12 chickens that all share the same feed. I just meant I add the brewers yeast for my ducks who need the niacin. Between the 20 of them they will gobble down some food

And thanks! I will see what info I can get out of them
