Gus can't walk!

Great post but I am still a little confused. Just how much Niacin would you put in a 5 gallon water? My goose is almost 12 weeks old but showing signs of weak legs. Does it affect them when they are this old? My gander is fine and they have been free ranging as well as eating Meat Bird feed. Thanks for any advice.

I'd use 500mg dose in 5 gallons still not sure if that would be enough, but start there and if you don't see improvement in a couple days double the dose. B's are water soluable so they leave the body fairly quick not need to worry about over dose.

Thanks miss Lydia. I increased to 750 this morning and am anxious to see improvement.

Good for you, I was being a bit conservative I am thinking , hope you see results fast. it usually doesn't take long.

I used 3 500mg capsules in my 5 gallon waterer and that seemed to do the trick.

Just got a new phone and naturally I had to try out the camera!
