It's hard to tell what her problem is without a video of her walking. If you could figure out how to post one, that would be quite helpful.

There are several problems other than niacin deficiency that can cause a pigeon-toed look. When you mention that the problem came on fairly suddenly and that the problem developed when she was older, that lessens the chance of it being related to niacin. Niacin problems tend to come on when they're younger in age, and at a slower rate.

You can follow the treatment in the thread below, it will help regardless but it may not be her problem.

Ok. Can I try uploading a video directly from this website?

Like I said earlier, I might have just not noticed him being pigeon-toed until he went lame. I wasn't watching them as I should for problems but these are my first ducks so i may have just not thought anything of it.
