Make sure the niacin is NOT time release or non-flush (this is actually a different chemical that doesn't provide benefits to ducklings). The ingredients should list nicotinic acid, not nicotinamide. Or use brewers' yeast or nutritional yeast (not active yeast) The legs may be congenital rather than due to a deficiency. Do you have pictures? That might help our more medically knowledgeable members to isolate the issue better.I've been giving my 2 week old ducks niacin for a week now for a duck w/ bowed legs and it doesn't seem to be getting better, any tips ??!
