Please help! 2-day-old Mallard Duckling

The Durvet one from the TSC around my neighborhood only has high level B complex for injections and the gel one but they say it's for bovines, ovines, and swines. Are those ok???

You want the Cattle B Injectable Durvet Brand, It's labeled as an injectable, but we administer it orally or over treats.

Sorry we forgot to say get the injectable and use it orally. That’s how we use it for our ducklings.

I'm sorry but I have another question I gave her the E capsule, although some of it got on my hands and she eventually got mad at me for keep holding her.. so I gave her all of what I could that was in the capsule. So I was moving on to give her the B complex but since the bottle is for injections, I'm not sure on how to open it. Also I hope I didn't stress her out too much by forcing her to take the capsule

Do you have a syringe with a needle?, @Miss Lydia has a way of opening the bottle without a needle, but I forgot how. You can try to give her the liquid a few times spread throughout the day so you don't need to give her so much all at once, you got some in her that's good!

Peel off that foil and use a dropper or 1 ml syringe with out needle

@MasterOfClucker they gave the vit E. How is the little duck doing is it drinking an eating yet?

I'll try give her little bit throughout the day tomorrow, that sounds better than what I did
