Does she seem to get around well enough to get enough food/water, and to hang out with her flock? She has had a pretty tough time with her feet.

Yeah, she gets around just fine. She eats, & drinks very well, lays large eggs just about every day. She hangs with the rest of the flock out in the coop yard too, & gets up, & down the ramp very well.
 
One of the only real uses for apple cider vinegar in chicken keeping is helping gout in a roundabout way.like a natural cleanser and detoxifier. It contains malic acid which helps in breaking down and removing uric acid from the system.
I mix it strong 1/4 cup to a gallon then moisten feed with the mix a couple days a week.
It isn't a miracle cure or anything but it helps.:)

I ran out of apple cider vinegar recently, so I should get more. I try to keep it on hand as often as I can.
 
What's the right Milligram of Tart Cherry Extract for a chicken?
1500mg
1200mg
1000mg

Can't find any lower then this. I'll be stopping at Walmart tomorrow to pick some up.
