Thank you so much for butting in..........I am dosing with vitamin B but have not considered E. I have I capsules as I take it daily. I have never injected a chicken before so I wonder if there is another way I can give it?????? I wonder why they have these deficiencies????

maybe just stick with what you are doing and give a break in between so you are not OD on vitimans. Maybe in the mouth though. Lets just hope they kick out of it. Are they putting one leg out in front and 1 in back? Or are they just on their side?

I give vitimans in feed and water and they still had the issue so it is weird and frustrating at the same time.

First of all, I am so sorry you lost some of your babies

Second, thanks for butting in with some useful information. Isn't that something, just a vitamin deficency and here us chickenheads try SO hard to give them the best and it can still happen....

May I ask what feed are you using?
Wishing you and your birdies a most speedy recovery with NO reoccurances!

OOOPSIE----didn't read till the end.....yes this is strange....I am going to throw this out...not enough sunlight???? Gottas think about what else in natural foodstuffs has Vit.E in it???

Well looks like im doing good with the whites. I have been trying to breed whites and a few other colors and I am getting around 35% come out white. These were taken today in different pens. Now I have to go through and pull the best with correct leg and lobes and conformation. These are a couple 3 month old pullets

This pen-They are 2 months

This pen has 1 to 3 week

I am now pushing vitamin E into them slowly and vitamin B. If they die, it will be from vitamin overdose!! I know the B has gotten thru their system because their urine is orange just like in people who take the tablets. I've just crushed some of my own B complex pills. I am squeezing my capsules of E but I do not have the selenium that was supposed to be used with the E. I will get some soon. Still eating and drinking ok.
