Hey all,
We had a pekin who was a runt. He finally started growing, quickly. He has developed a niacin deficiency.. I’ve been giving him 1ML of vitamin B along with 5ML of vitamin B in their water religiously for 2 weeks.
He got better for just a few days but is now back to falling over while standing, and struggling.
We live for a week long vacation in one week.
Is our Mr. Wobbles suffering? I don’t want to do what i’d have to do… but I will if he’s suffering. He doesn’t move around with the others.. he stays in his house majority of the time. He comes out for his daily treat, and that’s about it.
Can someone help with advice of what I need to do? Can i save him? Do i need to put him down? I don’t want our duck sitter to have to deal with anything while we’re gone..
