Ducks require different feed than Chickens. Vitamin and minerals are different..

 

[chickens really]

Many feeds are specifically made and designed for Meat Duck till butcher age. No pet Duck specific feeds..

Ducks and all poultry can eat the same feed but the best feed for poultry if you have a multi flock is an all flock feed. If this a feed your feeding now for poultry who will be processed it doesn't sound like it since you say flock maintainer which sounds similar to an all flock. My flock of birds eat a Non GMO feed which is poultry feed and they do great on it. No problems what so ever. If you aren't interested in a NON GMO and I didn't put that in there to try to get you to be but just to let you know it probably isn't the feed since she is 3 yrs and it's a flock maintainer. You could always give her some poultry vitamins in her water Poultry Nuri drench is a really good one and can be given straight into the bill and goes right into the blood stream so it works super fast. But on the other hand if there is the slightest possiblity she has gotten into something toxic I'd do a flush Activated charcoal is a good one but I'll give you the link. you decide. Do you put out oyster shell for your layers?

I'm very sorry your duck isn't feeling good

I think the feather loss is something different from her not being able to stand, though. Do you have drakes? If so, how many ducks and how many drakes do you have?

When was the last time she laid an egg?

3 drakes and 5 ducks but 1 drake has his own girl and doesn’t bother the others he’s a good boy LOL.Dont know last time she laid egg they free rome and they all lay in there house together.
