How old and is the water warm or cold? Almost sounds like some kind of seizure. If this is cold water try warm.
Has he had Niacin supplement from tiny? Might help to give him some in form of Nutritional yeast or plain niacin if you can find plain. 125 megs per gal of water crushed and mixed daily or 1 tab of Nutritional yeast per cup of feed either till 10-12 weeks old. this supports neurological and bone health. Reg Chick feed doesn't have adequate amounts to support water fowl. Crested non crested?
non crested, I was just wondering why he was the only one I've raised about 10 duckling so far no problem.
Just some ducklings need the extra nutrients. It's really not unusual and is best to go ahead and supplement all brand new ducklings if brooded inside. if mama raises them they aren't as likely to have a deficiency.
thank you what could I give them for extra nutrients we take them outside everyday that it's not raining it bad weather and I've seen him eat insects and grass
Best way would be to add some nutritional yeast to their feed to me this is the most natural way to give them their B's . You could also try crushing a B complex and mixing into their water make sure it has at least 125 mgs of niacin in it. You could try poultry Nutri drench or save a chick your local feed store should have something.
Just regular cooking yeast?
No no not baking yeast Nutritional yeast most natural food stores carry it. Human grade. You can order from Amazon.Might find it at Whole foods if you have one close.
