I agree on not feeding corn you are only doing yourself and your flock a disfavor. Adding anything to poultry feed is taking away critical nutrients that will only end up causing health problems down the road. It might save you money in the short run, but in the long run you will end up paying for vets, medications/treatment for health issues and possible loss of livestock. However, I think your issues come from elsewhere with the bullying and eye issues. A couple questions.
-How big is your coop/run?
-Do your birds free range or have a fenced area? If so how big is it?
-Do your ducks have water deep enough to dunk their entire head and are they offered at least a kiddie pool to bathe and preen?
Chickens and ducks will generally stick with their own and if kept in especially close quarters bullying is almost guaranteed.
