    Mandarin ducklings dying at 3 weeks old

    no, niacin is an actual ingredient itself. most birds are too picky about it, but waterfowl do actually need it. Its a common problem in them on normal chicken feeds. Game bird starter usually has the proper levels in it though

    Mandarin ducklings dying at 3 weeks old

    if you have coccidian issues in your area, it's best to give them medicated feed. ive been doing this since I was 8-9, I'm 41 now, cant always believe what you read on here. there's a lot that will tell you that, just repeating another old wives tale . check the niacin level in the feed, that...

    Mandarin ducklings dying at 3 weeks old

    consequently , coccidia takes 3 weeks to incubate? are they on medicated feed? good high protein starter too. Incubation has nothing to do with it. If they hatch and make it past a few days, its environmental , disease, or poor feed.

    Mandarin Duck thread ( for posting pictures and discussing)

    I second the mama incubator for any wild species. They don't incubate very well in bators. No known true blondes here that I am aware of, and white mandarins aren't but $100- $150 a pair here any more so unless it really was blondes, that's way over priced. Lots of folks call them blonde cause...
