    WOBBLY ROOSTER

    We have had chickens for a long time. Seen a lot of strange things. Have dispatched a few. We have never been so attached and felt so helpless. There was a point where started to improve, he did start crowing again, he was servicing the girls. We are heart broken over this loss. He was a very...

    Finally got B vitamins and started 12/10 Found our sweet boy dead on 12/13 He lived for almost six months. No one else is sick. His feet did not curl or legs sprawl. He just seemed drunk and wobbly. We have really struggled with not knowing why. I know this happens with chickens but to have one...

    This could make sense. It seems to have started with his terrible molt. Maybe this is when the deficiency started and has not been corrected since. I have just purchased on Amazon. It is worth a try. Thank you. I will keep the thread posted in case it may help someone else.

    We add the probiotic. Since using it we have not lost a single chicken in two years. They do have plain water all the time. Neighbor throws tomatoes over the fence now and then and we do give them tomatoes from the garden. Not rotten. But they all eat the same thing. I originally suspected...

    Forgot to mention, he is more wabbly when he eats or scratches himself because he has to use his neck which I think throws his balance off. He was quite the ballerina before all of this started. Also, he went through a HEAVY molt around the same time this started. 6 months ago. He is in full...

    He has had many things but not molasses and water. What would this do that other things have not? I have ran my hands over him. He seems thin. But he is a small chicken. Araucana are not large at all. I do not feel anything that seems weird. This putting him on his back thing. What would...
