Sick Pekin

I completely agree with @Miss Lydia. I listened to her advice with my little weak runt that I don't think was going to make it. Sometimes they just need a little boost from the B Complex. I hope yours pulls through. We are rooting for you!

Pekins might have been considered meat birds at one time but now they are beloved pets too and even though they can have leg issues usually diet related. . . But looks like your feeding a good wholesome feed so probably isn’t a feed issue only thing I could see is maybe changing feed to an all flock. It’s formulated for all poultry. Could be something your Pekin was born with and nothing will help but unless you try other things you’ll never know what might. I think @casportpony said turkey starter has high protein which may not be so good in fast growing Pekins. Maybe give him one more chance and use A liquid BComplex TSC has the best in the cattle dept and it will say injectable but just pull of the foil and use a syringe or dropper and give him 1ml morning over something yummy and 1 ml evening over something yummy. We have seen this formula do wonders for ducks so giving it a try sure can’t hurt.

Thank you so much for your recommendation - I had my husband run out and get the vitamin b complex this morning after seeing your comment and now only time will tell.
