So I got a text from someone who I sold ducklings to, She's having a problem with one of them, She says the one of her ducklings has no use of it's left side, He eats and drinks when they feed him, They aren't sure what to do for the duckling and they're a busy family that aren't home enough to watch and take care of him 24/7.. Any advice? I'll ask for a picture of it if that helps.
 
I am more familiar with chickens than ducks, but it sounds like there was an injury, but I would also use vitamin B complex tablets crushed into the food. Niacin or riboflavin deficiency might be a problem.

Thank you, She has 9 other ducklings in with the one, Would it be ok if the others ate the same food with the vitamin B complex tablets crushed into it? Or would she have to separate it?
