I just wrote an article today for a client, about all the health benefits of beer.

I wish I could have one. My local walmart doesn't sell the gluten-free beers... so you'll have to drink one for me.

Just one?

Quote: Turkeys and game birds have very high niacin requirements, so in theory it should be okay for the ducklings, though many people don't like giving the high protein to ducks. 70 ppm i think is what turkeys or game birds, which is more than what is duck need.
