One of our chickens is not using one of its legs at all, the other very little. i think it might be vitimn B defishancy or calcium.
One of his hips almost seems like it is out of place...
he is most comfortable when lying on his side.
He is about nine months old (maybe)
Is human B12 safe?
How do i give it to him?
Should i give calcium as well?

Thank you

it is helping a little hen can get up now and hop but thats it. iodine is an antiseptic so it helps if there are are any bacteria in his/her body and it helps from them getting any worse. you can also get iodine in drops and then just put like 3 drops in that would work much better.
 
Ok thank you! I'll look into it...
We're going to try some B for now and see how that works...
