They also get chick grit with added probiotics
Is that the feed your husband bought, because I don't think it's medicated, but it is formulated for ducklings, so added vitamins are not needed.
Good stuff.
Are you sprinkling this on their food or is it in a separate bowl?

They don't need chick grit right now.
Do you have any pictures of this ducks feet?
What type of floor are the ducklings on?

They are on wood chips. I don't have pics. The chick grit is in a separate dish. That feed is the stuff I usually get them. My husband had got manna pro medicated chick starter. They are back on this Purina stuff as of last night.

Also this feed does not have niacin (I couldn't find any feed that does) that's why I got the supplements.
Pine? Dry? Sores on the feet are worrisome.
When I give it to mine I sprinkle a little on the food because I worry about them eating too much of it.
That has amprolium, so it's safe, but it does not have enough b vitamins.
Good, that's better for them.
Both the Purina and the ManaPro have niacin, trust me. Read the fine print of the label and it should say niacin or nicotinic acid.

The feet didn't look infected just kinda raw and peeling/cracking and very red as if the skin was full of blood. But they weren't dry cracks they were most, almost like pruny
Are the on pine shavings or wood chips? Is the bedding dry?
