Is Jayke waking funny?

[Coldbreeze]

Jayke is about 6 weeks maybe a little less. He is half quaking and half peeping still. He eats and drinks and swims just fine but he walks like ME. I am pigeon toed and to me it looks like he is too.

I ordered some Rooster Booster and they are still on starter grower feed with Lettuce and peas ect in the morning and evening time.

Should I be worried or is he just too small for his big Ole feet?

He walks fine but both feet point inward and they go infront of the other as he walks. Sometimes he steps on on foot and slips but he has no issues getting around or swimming or running away from me....

Sounds like a niacin deficiency. There are tons of threads on this site about that. What type of feed are you giving him - specifically for ducks? - and what is his breed - pekins are particularly prone to leg and feet issues. When a duck starts developing problems you need to go to rescue meds, which is liquid vitamin B complex for animals. He needs 1 ml a day over treats.

I agree with CoriM, sounds like a niacin deficiency. Is his food forumulated for ducklings? Or is it a chick crumb?
I would start adding a little nutritious yeast to his food if its anything other than duckling food. 1tbsp of nutritious yeast to 1 cup of feed. I'd also look at your local TSC (if you have one) and get some durvet cattle injectable B complex. It says injectable, but its given to ducks orally, 1ml over a tasty treat daily until improvement.
If he is a larger breed, niacin is especially important, breeds like pekins usually need a little extra niacin.
It's important to treat this asap, it is treatable but it can deteriorate pretty fast if left.

This info will explain everything that has been shared with you. I'd get him on liquid B complex since he is showing signs of niacin deficiency.

The starter feed is formulated for Ducklings. I've been adding rooster booster to their special dinners (bowl of water with Lettuce, spinach ect) every evening. Jayke walks better outside than he does inside and im starting to think maybe he was bracing himself on my slippery wooden floors. (I clean them alot)

Here is Jayke (the largest) Quacklemore (slight pink to floof done by food coloring) and Rex.

Could be walking on slick floors is hard on their legs. Are you supplementing with any form of niacin? Even duck feed can not have enough for some breeds and Pekins are one.
Nutritional yeast is a good way of giving the extra they need. Just sprinkle 1 Tablespoon over each cup of feed you give them.
Sure are precious little ones.
