That's sad, and I hate to hear it! There's not much solid info put there on waterfowl the way there is for chickens. Niacin is a big issue when they are young and developing, and I've dealt with that. But once they are grown it is not anywhere near as impavtful, and unfortunately niacin deficiency gets blamed for almost every issue goose owners encounter, which is not helpful. Giving excess niacin usually does not hurt, but it is generally only the issue when they are quite young and usually presents as or with severe leg issues.

Sadly a necropsy is the only way to truly know, and I offer my condolences to your friend 😔
