Riboflavin Deficiency

If you've come to be familiar with my postings, you'll know I don't sugar coat but give it to a chicken keeper straight. The new symptom points to this possibly being an avian virus. But do continue the vitamins. It can't hurt.

If you are curious about how this could unfold for you and your flock, here is a thread where I documented my experience with some pullets of mine coming down with leg issues and the treatments I put them through trying to find a cure. In the end, a necropsy concluded they all had lymphoid leucosis. https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...update-now-another-pullet-going-lame.1432738/

This is not to say that this is what's going on with your chicken. There's still the possibility the vitamins will set her straight again. However, any worsening of her symptoms will give weight to the diagnosis of an avian virus.
