Nutrena NatureWise All Flock / Chick Starter

Wow, I hadn’t gotten around to emailing them yet so thanks!

125mg/kg = 125 ppm which seems really good compared to other feeds for ducks. I already bought a bag of nutritional yeast so I’ll give it at least until it’s gone.

I've had good luck with the feed.

NatureWise Meatbird is 81 mg/kg

So it appears you/we got the same answer as previously on the All Flock, so maybe it's safe to assume it's correct. lol Just seems like a lot of niacin. Think I'm to going to try it next time I buy food.

Naturewise All Flock has 125mg/kg - Protein = 18%
Naturewise Meatbird has 81mg/kg - Protein = 22%

Thanks so much @shawluvsbirds for gathering that info for us. Very helpful.

I'm not sure a duck can have too much niacin. Especially if you keep Pekins. They seem to need more than most.

Babies I have coming in are 3 KC and 2 WH. In the spring I will be adding at least a couple SA.

I'm sure I would fall in love with them if I had them... because... well, they're ducks, but on the surface I don't want an all white duck which instantly disqualifies Pekins.
The nutritional yeast came in today so I will offer it to them while I have it and may even try some myself since I've heard good things about it (from and for people).

I'm so excited, they are hatching Monday!

Be sure to post pictures!

I've never been super big on the all white ducks either.
Plus pekin ducks tend to have a lot more issues with their legs and feet anyway because of their size.

I've got Muscovy ducks which is why I'm so concerned them getting enough niacin since I think they're one of the heaviest/largest breeds.
