I like the liquid calcium gluconate the best Try TSC they usually have it, get a 1ml syringe without the needle then either give it to her by mouth or try giving it over a tasty treat.

Yes it did! Thanks for asking.

That's great! How long did it take to get back to normal? I have a duck who is holding up her leg and not wanting to use it and I can't find anything wrong with it. I have her isolated in a little area and am giving her the vitamin B complex.

It only took a few days. She was significantly better after laying a soft egg so I think that was the issue. If it's an egg problem, calcium supplements might help, like the liquid calcium gluconate mentioned above or crushed up calcium citrate pills.

My girl finally seems to be getting a little better!

Yay! Sorry I didn't see your message sooner.
