Description

VitaMetz Waterfowl Boost is an all-in-one nutritional supplement specifically formulated to meet the unique needs of ducks and other waterfowl. Whether you're raising hatchlings or supporting adult birds, this comprehensive blend delivers essential nutrients to promote optimal health, strong development, and improved recovery during challenging periods.

Perfect for use during stress, transport, illness recovery, or times of decreased appetite, VitaMetz provides a fast-acting boost through drinking water—making it simple and effective to administer.

A standout feature of VitaMetz is its precise niacin content. Waterfowl require significantly higher levels of niacin than other poultry, and deficiencies can lead to leg weakness and mobility issues. VitaMetz delivers the exact amount needed to support proper leg development and help prevent or correct deficiencies.

Packaged in a convenient, resealable 4 oz pouch, each unit includes a 1 tsp scoop for easy measuring. One package makes up to 25 gallons of fortified drinking water.

Frequently Asked Questions

Mix 1 tsp (scoop included) per one gallon of drinking water. Each 4 oz pack is enough to treat 20 gallons of drinking water.
Other poultry packs usually contain only some vitamins plus an electrolyte carrier. VitaMetz contains all vitamins (except choline, see below), trace minerals, and electrolytes plus probiotic bacteria.
Ducks grow considerably faster than other poultry during the first 6-8 weeks of life. It is common for commercial pekin ducks to reach 7.5-8 pounds in 6 weeks or less. To do this, their vitamin and mineral requirements are naturally higher than chickens.
Yes, used at slightly lower levels VitaMetz works fine for other poultry.
Since storage conditions affect shelf life, this can vary. Under ideal conditions (cool, dry, original unopened pack) VitaMetz can be expected to be good for up to two years. However, some vitamins and probiotic bacteria are more sensitive to heat, moisture and light. So under poor storage conditions, some of the vitamins and bacteria will be lost
After a time, some vitamins react with the water and each other. Likewise the bacteria, after being hydrated, need to be ingested so they can thrive and reproduce. In addition, the carriers will provide nutrients to mold.
VitaMetz will help fight stress at any time. The most important times would be days 1-5 after hatching to provide the needed vitamins and minerals, plus the bacteria to establish normal gut microflora. And then at any time of stress – like feed changes, new housing, heat or cold stress, etc.
While most vitamin packs supplement only certain vitamins VitaMetz meets the need for all vitamins except Choline (see below). It could even be used as a feed premix if needed.
Like vitamins and trace minerals, electrolytes like salt are necessary nutrients.
Trace minerals like copper, zinc, iron and manganese are necessary nutrients but are not usually added to vitamin packs because they can interact with and destroy vitamins. However, by providing them in a chelated form they are prevented from reacting until they reach the gut.
Probiotic bacteria serve several functions: They establish normal gut microflora which produce enzymes that help digest nutrients and they compete with and exclude potential disease-causing bacteria
Like all feed or ingredients, protect eyes from dust. Do not expose skin to un-diluted product. If exposed, flush with fresh water for 15 minutes.
VitaMetz can be used as a feed premix if you’d like to mix your own waterfowl feed. If you are mixing your own feed, add one package of VitaMetz and 1.5 pounds of choline chloride with every 500 pounds of feed.
The only vitamin missing in VitaMetz is Choline. Choline comes as choline chloride which is very hygroscopic and would cause VitaMetz to clump in the package and slowly dissolve.
