He may have a niacin deficiency. What do you feed him?

Brewers yeast is a great way to get extra niacin to ducklings. I can't remember the ratio though.I feel as though niacin and even the turmeric that someone else mentioned wouldn’t hurt them. I know where to get turmeric but where do you buy niacin? I also read on another site some oats and yeast
I put nutritional yeast in their food to add niacin. It should be at the grocery store maybe around the baking or spices. I put one tbs per one cup of food.
