INCUBATING w/FRIENDS! w/Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs No problem!

Yes, I have a duck with leg problems.
Quackers died this a.m. and Jesse is limping, but otherwise acting normal, so I'm assuming this is a niacin deficiency? Quackers was walking backwards sometimes on the first day I noticed her acting weird but after that was just .... I can't think of the right word to describe it ... lazy, I guess, but in a sick way. She would rest before going on with the others and, most of the time, was in the back of the line, struggling to keep up. She was resting/hiding in the daylily bush when I put the ducks in last night. I rarely saw her eating while she was sick, but she didn't look thin to me. I don't know if she had a niacin deficiency or not. I would bring her to the vet for a necropsy, but I just can't. I should have taken her to the vet before, but I thought it was only a niacin deficiency and she would be ok.
On the up side, I am finally getting purina flock raiser today. I am going to do some research to try to find out what Quackers had. If I see another duck acting like she did, they will go to the vet asap .... as long as he does ducks.

I miss my Quackburd so much. I don't think I'll ever change my avatar, unless it's to another picture of Quackers. I almost feel like changing my username, but I can only change it once, so I don't know about that. Poor little Quackers. I hope animals go to Heaven.

Sorry to hear about Quackers. Hopefully you get the problem figured out and fixed.

Woohoo!!!

Take it off. Chickens would peck it....

Mine only peck at painted toes if red or bricks red, they don't mind gunmetal blue nails. Lololol!

It is indeed delicious and some of the best.

So then use it and you won't have to have your nails painted.
