    I'm sorry that she's not doing very well. Heat can be hard on them, so I'd watch to make sure she's getting plenty to drink and has shade. The balance issues may be with her all her life it seems. You can always start her back on the vitamins for a while and see if they help. I agree, she...

    Unsteady / stiff chick - SLW

    Hard to know, but I do agree, there's something a little off about her in the photos. Perhaps genetics, something developmental. I don't think it's anything that you can corrected.

    LOL She KNEW you were up to something😂 The extra B vitamins won't hurt the others at all, it may be good for them. When I give a tablet or partial tablet to a bird, I just take them aside, pull down on the wattles or lower beak, open the beak slightly and shove the tablet or pill inside...

    I'd try giving her 1/4 tablet B-Complex daily to see if that makes a difference.
