Vitamin b?

[4Duckssofar]

I’m in the UK and would like to know if this product (see picture) is ok to give to my 10 week old duck to make her better on her feet. If so, how do I administer it? Just a drop in the water or on her food?

I would suggest against using that product. Do you have a product nearby that has straight niacin (B3)?

Ok, ive bought some niacin b3 tablets 50mg. Can I add them to the water?

I suggest giving her one, or two tablets a day if they are 50 milligrams. Crush the capsules into a fine powder and offer it over treats. The reason we don't offer them in water is the pills often taste bad which could adversely affect the bird's water intake. Ducks also like to spill the majority of their water rather than drink it.

Thank you so much for all your help. Fingers crossed it does the trick! X
