HELP PLEASE! ANY IDEAS

Also I have around 50 sucks are sure that is her problem ? None of the others have problems
I use an all flock for my ducks and chickens and have from the very beginning. My oldest ducks are 5 year old muscovies - large breeds. Currently I'm using kalmbach flock raiser, but have used other brands. It has at least the minimum amount of niacin that a duck would need. From hatch through the first 6 months or so, I always provide extra niacin. But, after that, I haven't had to add any extra niacin. Once in awhile if they have twisted an ankle are limping for an unknown reason, I will supplement with super b complex to give them a boost.
Liquid super b complex is a great supplement to add. As mentioned above, 1mL poured on a treat that they will quickly gobble up works well.
I offer oyster and crushed egg shell on the side for layers. If needed I also add citracal (which is a calcium supplement with vitamin d added to help with absorption of the calcium). Usually that's only been something needed for my chickens, as my duck eggs are always well formed with good shells.
Some ducks need more niacin than others in their diet. So, that could be why your duck is having issues.

Have you checked the bottoms of her feet for bumblefoot or wounds?

However, it could be something else if she happened to get into something toxic or ingested something she shouldn't have it can also have an effect on her well being and being able to walk.

After checking her over physically, if it were my duck, I'd start with the liquid b complex. It will state that it is injectable, but you can just put 1 mL on a treat or something the duck will gobble up quickly so that it gets the whole dose.
 
Also since she is laying like crazy she may be having an egg press on the nerves as it passes through and this causes the issue then she lays and is okay. I would def add some type of calcium. My Runners gobble up oyster shell like it's candy and they eat layer feed.
Mine eat their oyster shell like that too. I thought they might be just super hungry, but there is always food available. Runners are just so interestingly silly ducks!
