How hard hearted and you know what would have happened to Bernece . We have seen complete turn arounds from duckling having the issues Bernece is having. I don't know if you have a Whole foods or GNC close by they would have Nutritional yeast or Brewers yeast.Unbelievable!! I called the hatchery where I got the ducklings and asked him if he had niacin or brewers yeast in stock yet and he asked me why I needed it so I told him what was going on with Bernece and he said to bring her in and he would just swap her out with another one. I told him that that wasn't necessary I just wanted to know if he had niacin and he said "I am NOT a vet and neither are you! It might not even be niacin deficiency so just bring the duckling in and I will give you another one". I just thanked him and hung up the phone.
That's a myth, they *can* have medicated feed.Umm no. That is not normal.
Ducks are NOT LIKE CHICKENS. GAH!
For one they need non medicated feed. For two they NEED vitamans like niacin. buy this http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0042LA2PG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Ducks shouldn't be alone and they shouldn't really be with chickens, either.
