Welsh Harlequin

Date sort Score sort
They are eating and drinking and a few of them managed to get wet. I have towels to dry them off if needed and I can move them and/or the heater. This is one crazy work night! Coworkers are very confused.

EDIT!

Glad to report that all of my ducklings are home safe and sound in their brooder and are eating and drinking well. Surprisingly there was even very little mess!

Thank you all so very much for staying with me today while my ducklings were missing in transit and helping me fashion the last minute temporary brooder.

So happy everything worked out! I can't imagine how devastated I'd feel if I ordered ducklings and they suddenly went missing. ):

I will have pictures at some point today or tomorrow. I have only had them for a day but I am very much in love. When they hear my voice they talk back and some are already starting to take steps closer to my hand.

Question about Niacin.

Currently my little ones are eating Flock Raiser and have Merrick's Blue Ribbon Electrolyte and Probiotic powder in their water. In a day or two I plan to switch them over to Niacin only in their water.

The problem is the only no-flush Niacin I could get my hands on is 100mg Niacin, but it also has 160mg of Calcium in it. I know too much Calcium is not good. Should I try to order some online or will it be okay? I also can't find any brewers or nutritional yeast in my area. I've been all over this town and the next looking for Niacin/Brewers yeast for my little ones. I think I spent more on gas looking than I would have shipping some

I also have Poly-Vi-Sol on hand just in case. I wanted to come into this prepared.

You want plain niacin, not no-flush.
