Ducks acting like they cant walk

[ILuvHorses]

I bought 3 peking ducklings about a month ago and they have been fine until recently. One started flipping itself over and I eventually lost it and the other 2 act as if they cant walk and just kinda drag them selves across there broding box. They have a non medicated started and water and a heat lamp. Any Ideas would greatly be appreciated.

Are you providing niacin with either niacin capsules or brewers yeast?

I did not know I was supposed to but I will do that. Thank you. This is my first experiance with ducks so thank you for the edvice I will try this now. How much should I give them?

150 mg niacin per gallon of drinking water. If you cannot find plain niacin, use a tablespoon of brewer's yeast twice a day in their food.

Another possibility is an infection. If you can see a vet, that is best.

Niacin supplements often start making a difference within days.

What is the temperature in the brooder?
