Muscovy duck acting weird

[ICB42]

hello!

I have a flock of Muscovy ducks and tonight we noticed one wasn’t really walking a whole lot and when he did get up he kind wobbled and fell back over. I was thinking it was a niacin deficientcy but I’m not sure how much to give him or how to tell if that’s what it is

Could you get pictures or possibly a video? Can you check the Muscovy's feet?

He will get up and try to walk almost like his body is to heavy for him, I’ll try to get a video.

He could have bumble foot. Try getting a picture or video of his feet. Also have you checked him for any wounds? Is it possible something attacked him?

I took a video but it won’t upload here. I checked his feet and they seem fine it’s almost like he’s week, we are getting some vitimins tomorrow and he is holding his head up just fine. I can’t say for sure if he is eating or drinking on his own.

The link works but video isn't loading. You can mix sugar in the water to give a boost of energy.
I found this article that sounds just like what your going through. LINK

Makes me sad I keep checking on him because I’m worried and I don’t wanna stress him out anymore. We are gonna isolate him tomorrow and try some vitimins in the water. I hope it’s nothing serious :/
