Is this the right stuff

Yep that's it.

Now his feet are doing this... They are turning and kind of shriveling up

No his little feet are doing this... It's like they are shriveled up

I missed this! How is he doing? Is he getting the brewer's yeast now?

His feet have been like this since Monday. I got the Brewers Yeast and have been giving that to him since Tuesday and some electrolyte stuff for his water. They seem to be getting a little better but I also made him some "duck shoes" with cardboard and athletic tape! I'm not sure what steps to take from here. I have only him and another baby together so he's not getting walked all over and put the others in a separate pen. He acts like he wants to get up and walk some and sometimes he can.

Good call on the duck shoes! I've seen people have good luck with those. Not sure what else you can do other than the vitamins and the shoes.

Just wait it out now. keeping the shoes on him will keep his feet in normal position. Glad your seeing some improvement that is a good start.

I'm at a complete standstill right know. His feet seem to be getting worse then before and it looks like his feathers are falling out. I'm still doing all the other things as far as water and food additives.
