Hi guys, I'm new here!!
I have 2 male Pekin brothers who will be 1 in October. Walter and Jesse. One of my boys is lame. He has slipped tendons on both sides. This happened when he was about 3 months old. He is lame but happy. His brother is now losing his balance all of a sudden. I'm desperately trying to get niacin and my vitamins into him but it hasn't got better over the last 20 hours. He walks ok and is eating and drinking and pooping fine he's just losing his balance any ideas?

Welcome to BYC!

I'm sorry to hear one of your guys is having a balance issue. You can probably get some help over on the duck forum:

I hope things work out all right for Walter, Jesse, and you.

It's nice to have you here!

Sorry about your ducks! You probably want to head over to the duck section (see the link provided by @NorthFLChick ) or the Emergency section.

Glad to have you in the flock!
Good luck with your ducks, I don't know how to help, but I'm sure someone will!

I also recommend posting on the duck thread and the emergencies thread. You don't know how long it will take for either to respond, I hope they can help your ducks.

you can also put "Niacin deficiency in ducks," in the search box and see if the symptoms sound the same.
