I have a three week old duckling that has been wobbly since I got her at 2 days old. She doesn't seem hurt. She acts normal except for the wobble. Is this normal? And will she eventually get better?
Can you take a video of her and upload to YouTube or Vimeo and copy the link here so we can see what you're seeing?
What feed is she getting?
Have you been giving her a niacin supplement?
I'd go and get some liquid B complex it can be given to any other ducklings you have too but when one is showing niacin deficiency giving the liquid B complex seems to help them quicker. You can get human at most stores that sell vitamins or go to TSC and buy in the cattle section.. TSC is 1 ml a day over feed or treats just enough of either so she gets full amount of the liquid. Or if you get human b complex it's 3ml day since it isn't as concentrated as TSC. Usually once started if niacin def and most likely it is they recover pretty quick possibly a week or less depending on how long it's been going on. So very important to get them started asap.
Yeah, I have been giving them niacin since they were 2 days old, about a tbsp or 2 per day. I have also been giving them a little bit of Apple Cider Vinegar in their water, about an 1/8th tsp a day. Also been supplementing with oats and spinach.
She seems to be getting better, but slowly. I just thought she would have recovered by now.
I know you said you’ve been giving niacin do you know how many megs your giving ?ducklings need around 125 mgs a day. I would really try and get the Liquid B complex and try that with her. Sure won’t hurt. Adorable little ones
