Rooster needs help!

[Tonyroo]

And also he has bumblefoot which is making it difficult for him to get around. But it’s difficult to soak him when he’s having fits, but it’s definitely something I would work on. I just know he’s tired. Am I wishing too much, or should I just give up? I honestly don’t know what to do

No one can reasonably answer that question but you alone. You see his condition everyday and make judgements on his health and well being. You will know in your heart what will be best for him if that time comes around.

Since he's being treated for multiple things 3 months of recovery is reasonable.

Watching that video was so sad. He seems very nice. What breed? I wish I could offer advice, but 1) I don't have any, 2) I'd be scared if the advice was poor! I have my fingers crossed for Mister. He reminds me of one of my roosters.

Wrapping him in a towel and getting a picture of his foot pad may help to see if bumblefoot is bad enough to need treatment. Having another pair of hands when treating him can be helpful. Is he able to roost at night with his seizure problems?

B12 is only one vitamin, and B complex has all of the b’s. I would give him human vitamin B complex which contains all of the b vitamins, along with a softgel of human vitamin E 400 IU daily for a couple of weeks. Those can help with neurological symptoms. What did your other chickens die from? Does he seem perfectly normal except when he has one of these seizures?

This is what my pharmacy had.. will this work?

And can I give them together, at the same time?

He’s not able to roost, I keep him in a box on my porch.
