I have a 4 week old duckling and it's not walking well. We separated it from the rest

Don’t over do all you need it liquid b complex give your duckling 1 ml a day over something yummy like peas or dried mealworms. Putting it over something yummy keeps it from being watered down and you can make sure he is getting full dose. @Rudinsfarm2018 id actually give it any ducklings you have if feeding chick starter. Or buy Nutritional yeast for the ones not showing any symptoms. It won’t hurt your little patient in having it along with liquid b complex. NY is 1 Tab per cup
 
Will this work over peas?

Aww thanks for checking on this post! Seems to be doing a little better. I have video I can send later if we can put that on here? I'm not sure if it'll ever walk normal though.
I hear you 100%!! My duck seems to be better but also will probably nit walk normal again, sadly. But im still trying !! He walks sideways like because he will trip trying to go forward
 
Update came home from work to it laying on its side was limping around this morning. Now I have to hold it up so it can steady itself to eat. Its legs appear to be crossed. I've been giving the B complex 1 mil everyday. This isn't looking good. Any ideas welcome.

Maybe try more swimming/ water therapy. I know how hard that is with work, we work also I still worry about my little guy just a few minutes ago I refreshed their water and he fell over and one leg get stuck like over his back and I have to like put it back under for him, Idk what would happen when I'm not home. Are they outside on the ground ? I think that is helpful having a sturdy ground, and I was chopping green beans and giving to then with a crushed tum over it for calcium, it cphks help the bone strength, never know.
 
I have it in a large rubbermaid tote and instead of pine shavings I've been using old towels. So it can get its footing when it can. I put the little guy in the tub for some swimming but he can't swim at all was flailing around more than anything. I will get some tums tomorrow I only have chewable ones right now.
