I recently acquired a young chick with wry neck and I've been trying to think of other ways to get the vitamins into her (she's just far too stressed when I separate her to eat anything I give her with the vitamins in it so aside from the polyvisol that I drop on her beak - I was thinking of putting a supplement in they're feed. (ultimately only a selenium OD could be harmful right? ).
Has anyone ever used a horse supplement? for instance:

or

I know I would have to downsize the amount quite a bit.
My vet suggested feeding tetracycline (so I could just put this in the food or water also right?)
Then All I need to do is figure out how to feed Vitamin B...
(( I was also thinking about getting liquid Vit.E - because cutting the gel caps is getting very old very quickly - walgreens claims that they have an E-oil that is save to administer to people orally))
suggestions? what has everyone else used?
