Age: 1 yr.How old is your duck? what do you feed and are you or have you supplemented with a form of niacin? Does you duck walk without difficulty?
How long was he on bird recovery feed before you switched to pellets? Is the pellets meant for ducks or chickens? Can you get other duck food that isnt layers?Age: 1 yr.
Food: Our vet gave us a bird recovery feed for our duck so we were using that until yesterday night (after the twitching started) and switched to 17% layer pellets b/c we ran out.
Supplement: We give him 100 mg of niacin in vitamin B complex in his water.
Walking: He had botulism a week ago & is currently recovering (we took him to the vet & the vet gave him antibiotics). He's been steadily recovering since then and can stand/take a few steps now.
He's my first pet and I've had him for 3 weeks and it's so stressful trying to navigate

The pellets are meant for ducks but I didn't know he wasn't supposed to have layer feed- our duck's vet said it was fine We have anothee bag of grower pellets for ducks?
