I’m new and worried about my chicken

Hi, and welcome to BYC!

Good call! B-Complex is the best thing you can give her right now unless you find out it's something else.

I'd put them all on vitamin water too, in case it's some type of deficiency. We use Poultry Cell mostly, sometimes Nutri-Drench.

We're glad you're here!

I just noticed poultry cell has 28 mg of riboflavin and the b complex has only 1.7mg per pill. It would seem pcell is better to make she gets the most b2.
Thank you for the warm welcome!

Poultry cell per ounce, which you mix into a gallon of water. The pill is instant. You could give a little poultry cell via a a syringe in a pinch, but much better to go with the B-complex pills.

I just reread what you wrote.

Which B-complex do you have? Ours is just the basic kind, and it's 10 mg. Now I'm seeing what you mean if yours is only 1.7 mg. I'd get some better stuff next time you're in town!

It was the only b complex without tons of extra c and zinc. Wasn’t sure that was ok so went with this b complex.
I just gave her a pill AND 2cc of undiluted pcell. I’ve read it’s hard to overdose on b vitamins. I want her to get better it’s been a week she’s like this on pcell and zero change.
Thanks for replying to me.

Welcome to BYC! I'm sorry about your hen. Do her legs feel warm to the touch?
You are doing well by giving her supplements. What feed are you using?
