Probably a good idea!

In moderation I'm sure they're fine, but giving a b supplement should probably be avoided.

Glad you got the leg set. Can you share with us what the vet did? Cheesy yellow? Can you give us a better idea of what you mean?

People say you should avoid feeding anything that's high in thiamine.
