Belindajane here raising three little ducks too. ones very sick has never grown the other two stop eating they were with chicks the same age -- put them in another cage light food water the very sick one is in there two but in a pet carrier on a heating pad so panicky I have been praying over them the two larger ones have been eating better today -- so sad about the tiny one

What kind of feed?....Do you wet the feed?

 

[Miss Lydia]

How long has this been going on and how old are they?

What do you feed and are you giving them any supplemental niacin in the form of plain niacin or Nutritional/ Brewers yeast?

Please give all symptoms

med start in grow

 

[belindajane]

the two larger ones just yesterday the tiny one not growing became more obvious just lately because the other one are so much bigger. Start and grow

I never use medicated feed with Ducks....They need a Duck feed that works for water fowl...

 

[belindajane]

symptoms bigger ones not eating weak but the have started eating --tiny one not growing very weak eyes are white just lays the she was active two days ago I feel so helpless thought i knew alot about ducks -- not so much now

 

[belindajane]

they are 2 weeks

Ducklings need extra niacin and if possible be on Duckling starter or feed for water fowl...Young Ducklings find it easier to eat wet soupy food and need water to dunk their heads in many times a day...
