Got it. I don't know why this makes me so nervous

Just wrap the duckling in a soft washcloth and just put tiny amounts along the bill wait till it swallows then do it again. If it's a niacin deficiency if you do it right you should see improvement it a few days till a week. Is the duckling drinking and eating at all?

Yes, eating and drinking fine. She still is interactive with me and her sister also. I can tell her legs were weaker today. Should I keep the vet appointment I have for her tomorrow morning? I'm thinking I should just because I had to wait and the avian vet only works Thursday and Friday

 

[Miss Lydia]

Put some in their water it will benefit the other duckling and you can also put some on a little bit of feed and give it to them like that just so they eat all the feed so they get full dose. But for your little one with weak legs I would do her separately until you start seeing improvement.

 

[Miss Lydia]

Since she is 2 weeks old give her 1ml a day

If you feel good about taking her into the vet of course do that. We always rec taking them to a vet if at all possible.

@Katie Rossi How is your little one doing?

Give her B-complex asap. Put it on some treat or on her food that she will eat right up. You can't overdose her. This is what you need to get and we get it from Tractor Supply and I know it says for cattle but this is what we all use and it's great!
