Niacin deficiency turned slipped tendon

If you can get this and give her 1 ml per day orally ( either in a little dish with some mealworms or other treat or use a syringe without a needle and give directly orally following the directions from the post I will share) the liquid b complex has more niacinamide than just about anything else and this is what many of us here use)

Assume most farm stores sell this? I'll look around and give it a try! Thank you!

I wonder if @KathiQuacks or @cheezenkwackers have any advice?

I would try the B vitamins. I believe you need his weight off those legs so he might need a sling chair. I have seen people use garage sale baby bouncers with holes cut for the ducks legs to go through. In the chair he will need diapers or poi pads. Swimming in water he cannot stand in is good for him as well. It strengthens the legs without putting pressure on them.
