Sick duck

I will today will be 3 days that I started her on duck food and the vitamin. I did end up ordering Josh's frogs brewers yeast. They did have the 5lb bag at Amazon .I won't get it till Tues Tuesday.. let's just all hope it works. .I know the black male duck is getting bored but he stays right with her. Still biting any of us that come around her... lol
 
Keep us updated, please.

Amazon currently only has 1lb bags of Josh's Frogs Brewer's yeast. its in a clear plastic bag and so the beige of the produce shows. I buy my brewer's yeast in 5lb bags and today order 3 x5 lb directly from Josh's frogs. I bought 3 bags as the cost of mailing is much less per bag if I buy 3. (1lb bags costi more per pound.) If you have amazon prime, you get free mailing:

One more question all these things combined, is that going to be too much for her??

The duck isn't getting any better at the moment
That's great - keep it up and I sure hope she improves.

Have you heard this before?? It's the sick duck if you can see it it's a female doing that I put them in two different cages and that's what she does when I put her in there and he goes in the other one is she trying or what or have you ever heard it? She's really not getting any better it's been 2 weeks since I've been giving her that vitamin and it's been 3 days since I just started around the brewets yeast.. another thing I've been feeding her once a day with that yeast. Should I be doing it more
