Niacin deficient maybe?

Niacin deficient maybe?

I hope not cause I give poultry cell as an additive anyways apart of my normal care on top of a supplement in their feed. My other 3 are normal that was in the pen with him. I have been going crazy trying to figure this out.

He has no songs of an injury do to it being both legs. But I guess I can not roll out sprain. I feel even with a sprain he should be able to bare some weight especially after a week. He should have plenty of protein he is on supplements along with kalmbach turkey starter feed. The other 3 turkeys are fine and eat the same stuff. I don’t feel like he’s too big for his legs not to be able to support him. I can roll out blackhead he shows no signs. They are supper sensitive, I have done a lot of research and calls. It’s not botulism either. I’m more looking into tendon damage. I will open him up this weekend. He is not showing no signs of improvement. I have called 16 different vets and nobody knows.

I haven't had success with trying to improve tendon damage, either.

After putting him down last night I knew there was nothing else I can do. There was no way it could have been vitamin deficiency. I did open him up, his organs were normal no internal parasites. So we ruled it as tendon damage which can not be fixed.
