Injured duck?!

[AislanHay]

Hi all!

I am a duck momma worried as heck! This is my duck's last week in their brooder before we move them out to their duck house outside! Often when I clean their brooder I let them swim around in the tub (always supervised). Today while I was cleaning their brooder my husband noticed Goose, one of our ducks, standing at the back of the tub putting all her weight on her left leg. I massaged her right leg gently and she didn't seem to be in any pain. She is still favoring it after about 15 minutes but is acting normal otherwise. Any advice? My husband said that he didn't see anything that would had caused her to be in pain.

What are they eating?

They are eating meatbird feed

Which brand and how old are they exactly?

Have you been supplementing with niacin?

My concern would be protein content is way too high or she's niacin deficient

Niacin deficiency was my guess too.
