Cayuga problems

[Vanillaandbean]

hello everyone so I have this Cayuga and she’s been very strange these few days like she doesn’t really walk my guess is niacin deficiency but I give her brewers yeast all of the time but her neck will like stop working and just dig her head in the floor and she will sit here and chirp and quack really loud and then she fixes it and she just continues to sit there sometimes she will lift the front of her feet up and do nothing but shes still eating and drinking but what is wrong with her?

With neck issues, do ducks have the similar need for vitamin e as chickens? I would check to make sure it doesn't hurt a duck, and then give her some for awhile. Even if she doesn't need it it shouldn't hurt anything.

I think so, and the best course of action in my opinion is to follow the wry neck treatment plan.
I had written a few paragraphs yesterday but forgot to click post then I came back and just put the link. Normally I would write words not just put a link. It sounds impersonal so I’m sorryI’ve just been so busy this summer. I had three sets of ducklings/goslings. working on all kinds of integration plans.

Oh don’t worry about it I put her in the tub to wash her and she literally starts drowning her bill just goes straight under water and after that I put her back in the brooder and her head went all the way flat under her stomach her legs are bent in a way that makes her feet point up in the air but she is eating and drinking still so thats something
