Hello. Some feed co-ops will have their own brands that they mill themselves, & there are regional graineries as well. Nutrena is a well known national brand, as is Dumor. Personally, I use Purina & Nutrena, altho in a pinch, I will pick up the brand made by a nearby grain mill. So yes, Purina is an excellent brand. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

Here are a few products that may be similar for you to try out for James (cute name!) [Lafeber's Nutri-Berries](https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/lafebers-nutri-berries-parrot-food): while not entirely pelleted, they are a nice mix of nutrients that are fun to eat and can be broken down to smaller sizes. [ZuPreem Avian Maintenance Natural](https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/zupreem-avianmaintenance-natural-bird-diet-for-parrots-and-conures): a good pelleted food that may be of a similar size to what you were feeding prior. They also offer[ ZuPreem Classic](https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/zupreem-classic-avianmaintenance-natural-bird-diet-for-large-parrots) which is a slightly larger size of the formulation, you may want to try out both to see if James prefers one to the other.

Do not give anymore Panado. Acetominophen can be toxic to birds. It is never recommended to medicate a pet without the advice of a veterinarian. Geese eat mainly fresh grasses, shoots and clover. you can soak some wheat in water to soften it and offer that to Hansie. Unflavored PediaLyte can be offered via syringe to maintain hydration. Ideally, he should be physically examined by your veterinarian or a vet experienced in treating domestic fowl to diagnose and treat infection or injury. Keep him separated from the flock. Keep him warm and as stress free as possible until he sees the doctor.

Thanks for reaching out about Peanut. By the description, there could be something occluding the throat or esophagus. Can it drink water? Try gently opening the mouth and peering, examine the tongue if possible. With these complications, a veterinary visit is recommended.

You could try to continue the vitamins (there are some that can be mixed with water and then syringe fed) however I would be concerned about quality of life with that many seizures ongoing. If your duck seems to be suffering it may be best to humanely euthanize. If you suspect there may be something such as an illness that caused the seizures, a necropsy from your vet or a local veterinary college may help determine the cause of the issue so you can treat the rest of your flock as needed.
