We found vitamin b complex at Walmart and crushed it up and sprinkled it in their food. We had rooster booster already for our older chickens so we added that to their water along with riboflavin capsules we opened and sprinkled in. It might have been overkill but from what I read you really...
Hello! I have a blue Orpington chick that was mail delivered a week ago. Everything was fine until she was like 5 days old when we noticed she was reluctant to walk on her feet and would mostly walk on her hocks with her wings flapping. I reviewed some discussions on here and it seems to sound...
Hi there, just wondering if you know about how long it will take to see improvement after beginning vitamin b supplementation? We have a week old chick that we believe is b2 deficient and began her on vitamin yesterday and have seen minimal improvement. Does it usually take a few days?
