    Niacin Supplement

    As it turns out, there is no regular niacin or B3 in this entire town. It'll be Wednesday before I can get to the next town over to get some nutritional yeast. We've already lost one, I hope this one can hang on. Thanks for the reply!

    Niacin Supplement

    We have a two week old pekin that is in need of niacin. In the past I crushed up a bit of a niacin tablet, mixed it with water and squirted it down the ducks throat. For the life of me I cannot remember how much I gave her. Anyone have any idea how much if administering this way?

    urgent umbilical help needed

    I'm guessing its the yolk sac attached to the cord. I cleaned it all off..... She seems very lethargic but seems to have a lot of spunk left in her. I just don't know what to do for her. :( We're relatively new to chickens.

    Pekin duck sitting on chicken eggs

    Thanks! I'll see if my feed store carries it. I'd hate to take away her babies if I didn't have to. I might see if she'll tolerate me taking her away just for a feed and a swim a few times a day. She might enjoy the break :D

    Pekin duck sitting on chicken eggs

    I thought typically pekins didn't go broody but our girl is sitting on six chicken eggs. Once they hatch I know I'll have to take her pool away but what about feeding. I've learned from experience that ducks need duck food but what about the chicks? They can't eat the ducks food. How do I...

    I've read hundreds of posts and articles about what peop;le feeds their ducks but I still have to ask.... Does anyone give their laying ducks Purina Layena crumbles? Do they need oyster shell? If they do, how do you offer the shell? Do they need anything else on a daily basis? I treat my...
