NEED HELP!

And if you're going all the way to Tractor Supply just buy duck food aka waterfowl food. You wont have to mix niacin in it!!

Will do

Our Tractor doesn’t have duck food that I’ve seen. There is another farm supply store called Coastal here that only sells 5 lb bags of duck food, definitely no duckling feed. I live in a massive farming area, and none of them carry very large duck feed bags, and no duckling feed.

My Natural Balance LID duck puppy food for our 6 mth old (and 80+lb) Chesapeake Bay Retriever is only sold at 1 of the farm supply or pet stores.

I use Purina Flock Raiser crumble until they’re old enough to go on Nutrena Country Feeds All Flock.

Where about do you live?

So just buying the food I need too buy it will help his leg heal????that's the point I'm trying to cross..

If the lameness is only from nutritional deficiency it’ll help tremendously in a few days. It will be better for all your ducklings no matter what.

Make sure you get chick grit too.

If the problem is diet related, yes, new food and extra vitamins will help, but if his leg is broken, or if the problem is related to him being crested, no, it won't help. Have you examined his leg for a fracture?

Nope don't have the money for it.

Here's a screenshot of one of the only researched and referenced food guides for ducks. Probably going to be hard to find something that matches it exactly but it's a good guideline!

You can do it yourself!
