I got the liquid B 12 at tractor supply how much should I give her?

Did you get B12 or B Complex that has all of the B vitamins—thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, biotin, B12 and others? B12 is only B12 (cobalamin.) She needs riboflavin (B2) for leg health. If you got the wrong one, I would return it and get B Complex. Personally, I like the human tablets for around $8 at Walmart. Give 1/2 tablet daily crushed in food or just pop it into her beak to swallow. If using B complex liquid from a feed store, dosage is usually 1/4 to 1/2 ml daily.

Oh no, I got the B12, but I already opened it and gave her her first dose so they’re probably not gonna return it since I opened it

When I asked for the B supplement for chickens, they only gave me one thing

It was about $30. Can I continue to use that and add the other B vitamin?

I think I do have some poultry booster or something like that that I think has those ingredients you listed in the B vitamin could I use those? Do you think?

So I went and got the B complex like you said at Walmart gave her her first dose today. She is not doing anything but laying down she’s not even able to stand up to eat or drink. I have to put the food or water in front of her also it does not look like she pooped at all today as I don’t see any poop in her cage. Should I splint it to make her where she can be Mobile?

I have been giving her scrambled eggs to give her more protein when I put it in front of her she gobbled it down but I don’t think she ate that much. Maybe just a couple pieces of the pieces of scrambled egg.
