feed nutritional yeast

[Cdacosta]

Hello everyone,
How often should I feed nutritional yeast I have 2 3 week old pekins and they are doing amazing just heard that I should feed it ? Also is any nutritional yeast fine ?

Everyday. I just sprinkle it on the duckling's food. As long as it is nutritional yeast any brand is fine, but you don't want bakers yeast.

1 tbsp. Per cup of feed is the recommended dose.

I recommend reading this:

At the bottom of the article are 4 different brands with niacin content. It varies widely. Depending on what you feed your ducklings they may need niacin supplements.

Any is fine as long as you make sure it's fortified and the niacin amount. I prefer to feed liquid B complex myself over nutritional yeast.

What brand of poultry feed? Unless it's a private brand, we can probably help find the nutritional analysis.
