Chicken with bad infection on mouth/face (was Vitamin B complex injectable dosage for chicken)

Bird of concern I would cull, as in terminate. Chronic health issue where you think hypovitaminosis is the cause even when providing quality complete feed indicates something serious you do not want persisting in a flock.
 
Oh no, no no. lol
I read on Amazon where i ordered it that it burns after injecting it. If anything like the niacin powder that you can mix with water and drink, it will burn like hell. But i figured since chickens have a faster metabolism that its not the case.

I agree. BUT, even when she shared a feeder and a waterer with her flock, none of the others got what she has. She's a pet. I will not eat her eggs nor will i breed her or incubate her eggs. I simply want her to get better. But i am starting to wonder if what she has is really not curable.
 
I agree. I mean, she doesn't seem in pain. She's eating ok, she's drinking ok, but she can't be in the house for ever. She's a chicken and needs to be able to do chicken things. So, i will think about it.

:hugs
I thought she wasn't eating good?
 
she wasn't eating crumble or anyting else i offered. I have since bought special bird seeds. Has only 13% protein, but all the essential vitamins and other nutrients. She is only pecking at it a little. I have 4 different bowls in her kennel. Flock balancer pellets, Non medicated starter crumble, Bird seeds. Chick grit/ oyster shell. She's pooping, so she must be eating something. Although the bowls look untouched. Her beak has since reiinfected at the very back and i am not sure anymore what would help. She's on day two of a 4 day Dura Pen Penicillin injectable. I am out of ideas and almost out of hope :(
