Niacin Overdose

[Miss Lydia]

I have a question about chicken niacin overdose. If you are feeding a mixed flock of chickens and ducks chicken layer pellets, and supplementing niacin in the water or feed, would the chickens be overdosed on niacin?

You just linked the thread we are already on, I read this and it’s about ducks, I’m asking about chickens when fed the correct duck amount

Well then the info is right here . Sorry I didn't look closely at the heading.
I have raised many chickens and ducklings not in the same brooder but on the ground after mama takes them out and they all are fed extra niacin in the form of Nutritional yeast I haven't ever used just plain niacin on any of my flock other than Liquid B Complex if I notice a ducking with shakey legs. As far as I can tell none have suffered any health issues many of my chickens live to be 8-13 yrs old. Ducks too.
