Need advise on a Hen lacking Riboflavin

[CrazyChickensLady]

Our 7 month old hen has started showing sign of curled toe paralysis caused by a lack of riboflavin. What supplement are there with a high Riboflavin content. We found one but its only 5mg. We are looking for something higher

I would get human vitamin B complex or super B complex, which has all of the B’s including riboflavin. Just give 1/4 or 1/2 tablet daily, crushed into a little food or a spoonful of water. Are the toes curled on both feet or just one? Is the chicken walking or sitting on her hocks? Was she vaccinated for Mareks disease? Mareks can also cause curled toe paralysis, but hopefully, this will clear up with a little extra riboflavin.

Thank you for the advice. Its not mericks. Thank God. Its both but she is favoring one over the other.

At 7 months, I'd suspect Mareks more than CTP ... Was she vaccinated/tested for it?

Can you post some photos of her and her poop?
A video of her actions may be helpful as well - upload video to YouTube and provide a link.

What do you feed including treats?

Did you have confirmation that it's not Marek's disease?
