Thank you SO MUCH for your video! I found my hen paralyzed in the coop on Thanksgiving and was sure she was dying. Two days later, she was still alive and started eating again, but still not walking, and her toes had curled in. I saw your video and started giving her scrambled eggs every day, and the whole flock now gets Rooster Booster and B12 supplements. One month later, my baby Reba is walking again! Bless you!
Bock Bock chicken is hands down, the very best chicken channel out there. Why? Because they cover everything from illnesses, ailments, coops and caring for chickens in general. Fantastic all the way around!
Wow! I’m so grateful for your video. I had a 5 month old hen who came down with curly toe. One of her legs was totally useless and limp. Her toes were all curled in and paralyzed stiff. She couldn’t walk at all. She hopped on one foot. I fed her a scrambled egg every day with about a teaspoon of liquid B2 and Nutritional Yeast flakes. I Put Poultry Cell in her water. I Made her a thick cardboard shoe, wrapping bandaids around each toe. Now after only 10 days she is FULLY RECOVERED! It’s just a miracle. She walks with no limp whatsoever. Like nothing was ever wrong with her. I can’t thank you enough!
Wow miss thank you we had the same problem and didn't know what to do. First he started limping on one leg and we thought it was broken so we separated him from the other chickens and the other leg was also doing it he started pretty much doing the splits and his toes started curling up. We came across your video and saw a couple of other people with success doing what you did in the comments and we tried it out and wow it's amazing We became very close and grew very fond of this little shit because he was the only one that hatched that the hen was laying on. To see him limping like that broke our hearts. We're very blessed to come across your channel. My rooster's/chicken we're not quite sure what it is yet but we think it's a rooster what's about a month and a 1/2 when he started not being able to walk we've been doing what he told us to do we got all the ingredients that you got and been feeding him scrambled eggs and he's made a full recovery he's now a little over 2 months.Thank you very much. God Bless miss
This video was extremely helpful to one of my Bantam Roo’s. It’s been about a month since his first noticeable paralysis. His toes and legs were not moving and kept falling over. He then spent about 2 to 3 weeks on his side. His Crown was very dark and purple. Since this video being watched he has slowly regained his strength. He is now back upright while learning to walk again. His Crown has since regained color and he is trying to stand and walk more and more each day. His appetite never left. On top of everything the lice he had was extreme. That video was a life saver for the whole flock! Thank you so much for all the advice and keep doing what y’all are doing!!
That is so heartwarming to hear! Hope he is still doing better in his road to recovery. We love helping people and glad we could pass on this information to you ❤️
@@BockBockBouquet just a quick update, he has started to get his very loud voice back! Also he has started to spend more time with the rest of his people in the flock daily. We are still giving him his regiment of vitamins and by next week he’ll be with the flock full time! Again thank you for everything y’all do and keep it up!!
Did you give the poultry cellular via syringe or put in the water? I’m having a hard time with the syringe and don’t want to stress her out more. Can you tell me what you did that worked? Thank you so so much. Currently this is what’s happening with ours.
Bless your precious heart immensely! My baby chicken is going through this now (well shes not a baby she is like 4 yrs of age but she will always be my baby:) And it breaks my heart to see her limping but now that I came across your video i have hope😊. Thank you so very much, may God bless you greatly for your loving and caring heart! With much appreciation!
I hope your baby gets better soon!! It’s so painful to see them not well, when we just want them to live their best and happy life ❤️ they are all our babies as well
Thanks! My poor Roo is experiencing this right now. I just Google the symptoms and your video popped up. I'm gonna be able to sleep tonight knowing he's got a good chance at recovery. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for this video! Came across it while trying to find help for my young chicken that couldn't walk. She started limping and it got worse to the point she just laid around. After no improvement from being inside for a week I found your video and started the supplements last night. She is already trying to stand up this morning and that's more than she's done all week. Thanks again! Hoping this put us on the right track to get her running around happy and back outside.
@@charleechristian7413did you do everything she said to do ? I didn’t find the yeast today and I’m hesitant to do the things in the water because she had said she stoped doing them . Thank you for your reply !
@@hellosunshine9915 I used Poultry Cell in her water some or on her food, nutritional yeast sprinkled on scrambled eggs and I gave her vitamin B complex on scrambled eggs some. I kept her inside for awhile then when I put her back with the flock she was separated in a large dog crate so she wouldn't get bullied and had good access to food and water. I'm sorry I don't remember how long it took her to get better but it took some time before she was 100%.
Hi I had to had a comment. My chicken was paralysis. and I had no idea what happen or what to do. I was having to go out and rotate her from side to side and feed and water by holding her up. I watched this video and went and bought the poultry cell. and been giving her by mouth for 2 weeks. Today she is 80percent better walking. Still a little wobbly. My husband can't believe she got better. He almost was going to put her down because she looked like she was suffering. I am so thankful you had this video. You saved my chicken life!!!!
I cannot thank you enough for this video! I am currently nursing my little polish hen back to health from what I suspected was a vitamin deficiency. After watching your video, I'm so happy to know that I'm on the right path to her recovery. I will be adding a scrambled egg to her food as well (once she starts regaining her appetite). Thank you so much for making this! Fingers crossed she walks again and can join her sisters in the yard soon!
Very helpful video. I was checking on my chickens last Friday and found my rooster face down on the ground. He's usually fiesty, but let me pick him up. He was shivering a little when I brought him in so I held him until he warmed up. I couldn't see anything wrong with him. He seemed fine the day before. He woildn't eat or drink. He's almost 2 years old. I've had him for about 18 months. I gave him molasses and water and Gatorade and currently have him inside in a box. I noticed when I was feeding him that his feet are curled up. He straightened them up to stand, but when we stopped supporting him, he put his face on the ground. He's improved a little in the past week. He holds his head just off the ground as you can see in the picture. He has some mucous hanging out of his beak. He will now eat scrambled eggs. He can stand but doesn't walk. I have a bowl of watered down Gatorade for him to drink. We have been giving him Rooster Booster Poultry Cell vitamin supplement for the last 2 days and put diatomaceous earth on his eggs. He's my first chicken so I don't know a whole lot. Any advice? What could this be and what else can we try? Thanks.
You’re doing the right thing, hope your boy gets better soon ❤️ just keep at it and don’t give up. If you keep him eating and drinking he’ll stay alive to get better. Maybe he injured his leg and needs time to heal. Sometimes large roosters hurt themselves from flying and landing down from a high roost because of their heavy body. Either way vitamin B is great for his nerves and health. I would add vitamin E and selenium as well as that cures wry neck and can cause them to loose balance and fall forward. I would stop with the Diatomaceous Earth as it is a well spread myth that it controls internal parasites, once wet inside their system it looses all effectiveness and ability to kill bugs and parasites. I would replace with nutritional yeast (brewers yeast) has a lot of healing vitamins in it. Good luck with your boy, sorry you’re going through this ❤️
Like so many, I too am grateful!! I watched this on October 6, 2023. Today, November 12, 2023, our hen is well and integrated back into the flock. Thank you!!
You helped me with your bumblefoot video, I had to do 'surgery' on one of the chickens a few weeks ago...it took about 3 tries to get it all, with couple of weeks break in between. But now she is virtually back to normal!
This is exactly what our Crested Cream Legbar hen, Penny, has been going through! It started as a limp and has progressed to both feet with curled up toes and an inability to stand and walk. We are starting this treatment today! We had already separated her with vitamin water, put her food and water close, and she has had scrambled eggs two days in a row. So hopefully this was a good start while we hunt down the other treatments. Thank you so much for this video!
Update to my 1,5 month old comment: my chicken started getting up after 1 month and after 1,5 month she is walking around the yard and garden, getting better every day, slowly ready to return to her fellow mates. You saved my chicken's life - thank you very much!!! Note: I couldn't get the riboflavin for poultry, so I bought out of despair the human B-complex tablets and sirup ( also suitable for kids) at the pharmacy, adding regular poultry vitamins, with proper diet ( also eggs and probiotics) and it worked. Better than nothing :-)
Thank God for you! I brought my Polly (9week pullet) to the poultry vet about a month ago, she suddently couldn’t walk, the vet said it’s like Mareks but without any other symptoms. My heart breaks each time. I got all the vitamins and B complex to support her healing but none worked the past month. She stopped drinking water unless I use syringe. I watches your video last night and ordered right away the yeast and non medicated feeds, including the yeast and today, I cried tears of joy! after feeding her scrambled eggs, seasoned with yeast seasoning and some poultry cell and b-12, she was drinking her water (mixed also with some vit B complex)! I’m pretty positive she’ll recover!
I have had 3 chicks completely paralyzed.. otherwise seemed completely healthy.. not lethargic or anything. They all regained their walking abilities after about a week. 4:21
This was so helpful we could not find anyone who knew what was wrong with our frizzle. She has been limping and dragging her foot for 4 days now. We just purchased everything and starting treatment today
Thank you this video was just what I needed - have a lame hen and she is doing better now has partially regained use of one leg and we're hoping for a full recovery - she is perked up and is gaining weight since starting your protocol.
I think this is what is happening to my hen - she's limping but has no visible injury and no swelling to indicate bumblefoot. They would get upset if you touched a sensitive spot, right? I even checked for a lodged egg. Poor hen. Gave her some nutritional yeast after watching your video, waiting for the other things to arrive and plan on the scrambled egg idea. Thanks so much for putting this on RUclips! You are a Godsend!
Thank you so much for this video. We have a chicken about 3 months old that was walking normal one day and the next she was stumbling around. Within a day or two she was not standing and was moving around on her hocks. She seemed perfectly fine. No bumblefoot. No injury. None of the other hens in our flock of 24 had symptoms. Found your video after trying to research the problem. We are about 2-2 1/2 weeks into the vitamins your recommended and she is now back carefully walking in her tip toes. One leg has recovered quicker than the other but she is improving. Thanks so much for making this video!
Oh so glad to hear she is improving, continue treatment even a few weeks after she appears recovered fully to prevent a relapse. Our boy relapses time to time, seems like once a year. This may be a problem she’ll have for the rest of her life and need more vitamins than the other flock. When we see symptoms and give him riboflavin vitamins he always recovers again
@@BockBockBouquet Good to know. We will certainly keep that in mind and make sure she gets some additional vitamins on a regular basis. Thanks so much!
I had a chicken that couldn't walk and she lived on the floor for 8 months until she got an eye injury. I was feeding her from a syringe for 8 days until she passed away in January of 2022. Just a few days before this video was published.
@@BockBockBouquet We could tell something was going to happen when she was a chick because her eyes were smaller than the rest of them and she didn't act right.
@@collectortube sometimes they just aren’t born right and it’s out of our control. We can only do our best to try and give them the best life possible ❤️
Thank you so much!! So helpful.. My Rosie is back with the other hens in coop! It was a rough month since Sept 2nd .. 2weeks of nothing working… went out and purchased your recommendations. Had her in house with me to supervise.. the others were not kind to her. I locked the mean girls up for almost a week..Rosie is back to laying eggs too!❤
Thanks to this video, I found out that my guy is most likely vitamin b deficient. Little Garrus stopped walking less than a week ago. I also ruled out other diseases/disorders and was running out of ideas on what was going on. I gave him a vitamin b injection and am giving him the oral supplements in his feed as well. He'll continue to get a daily injection until he starts trying to move around on his own again. Garrus is the best chicken I've ever owned. It would completely break my heart if I lost him! He's not only my show roo. He's my favorite little guy.
@BockBockBouquet How long should I continue the supplements? She is not wanting to drink or receive the poultry cell anymore. I am still able to sprinkle the nutritional yeast on foods.
Thank you. She is completely back to running and perching. I still notice some sort of shaking on one leg once in a while, but she is growing and happy. ❤️
Thank you for creating this video. ❤ After digging around online trying to work out what could be causing these symptoms (thinking it may even just be old age and or moulting) our hen couldn't stand and lost all weight. I persistently have been looking after her, wormed and started on antibiotics, she is eating more now (have been feeding her mainly eggs, bananas, kangaroo mince, and yoghurt) she has been improving (standing and increased appetite). Now that I know this information about vitamin b deficiency i will start treating her tomorrow.
@@BockBockBouquet What is the time frame I’m looking at for recovery? My Hennie I noticed was limping on Saturday evening i immediately took her inside and started poultry cell. I didn’t realize I needed unmedicated feed so I added that on Monday evening. So she’s had poultry cell direct daily, poultry booster in her feed and nutritional yeast for 2 days. I’ve heard it can take several weeks. She kinda just falls around but will try and walk. She is sleeping a lot, I’m guessing the falling around is tiresome. Other than that she is eating and I’m using a syringe to give her water just so I know she’s drinking. Anything else I should try? Or just give it time?
I just want to thank you. Found this video when one of my hen couldn't walk. Got poultry cell right away in our coop and is feeding her 2ml once a day. They don't have the other two products. The poutry booster I got from tractor supply has millions tiny little bugs and I put it in the freezer so no more bugs crawling around. Regardless, she doesn't like to eat that. Will order the yeast. Anyhow, she can stand a little bit now. Thanks!
I am so thankful for this video. I have a hen doing to same thing and I started pushing vitamins Saturday when I found her. I believe it is due to the corid treatment that I had to do last week. It just wiped out her vitamins. So im trying to get her well and replenish them.
Thank You! I Though It was Marek's Disease., All Symptoms you've mentioned has observed and confirmed, Positive to B-Complex Deficiency.. Love From Philippines
Hi, thank you for your well put together video. It was a good explanation. Human vitamin-b supplements can also be bought in bulk powder. I have pet show chickens. I've also looked to the pigeon industry to see how they handle illness with their $400k racing pigeons.
Excellent video. I have one just started limping yesterday, culled toes today. Bought from Hoovers from TSC so hope they vaccinated against Marek's and this is just a vitamin def
Hey !!!! Thank you so much for this video we have a 3 week old golden lace pullet and she was laying down curled toes walking on her knees she was being trampled so we separated her gave her poultry cell and a new starter mash for all of them with B12 in it she's been eating and drinking like crazy and for the last week we've kept her separated checked on her an hour ago and she's walking !!!!!
Damn you are so smart and such a good caring person and your super pretty I never thought there was so much to learn about these chickens I got thank you so much
This video saved my sweet Minnie. Around 16 weeks she started with a slight limp to toes curling, to not being able to walk at all in just a matter of days. A daily scrambled egg with nutritional yeast everyday. I rotated daily either topping it with poultry cell or vitamin B complex. It’s been 8 weeks and I just integrated her back in with the flock. She’s still got some healing and strengthening to do so she can be on her feet all day but she is doing awesome. Hoping she will be able to work her way back up that pecking order soon!
@@LauraJames-qz4kcSorry for the late response. I just picked up any old Vitamin B complex from Walmart. It comes in capsules and you can sprinkle it on a scrambled egg. After a few months her foot started to curl again. Looks like I am going to have to keep her on a regular dose of it. I already feed a high quality feed. All my other chickens are fine.
I'm so thankful for your video.....my chicken is going through this now..she is alert...eating Nd drinking..but she can't move.or stand..or walk..it's sooo awful
Feb 2024 Ny leghorn hen 8 months old Josie was not able to walk on her right leg but over night switched to left leg & right leg healed! Its been 2 weeks now she still cannot do anything but drag leg. No injury noted on x ray at vet. Vet thought mareks but no other symptoms ! vet just has no idea. So I have powder & liquid poultry cell started yesterday. I hope she heals. this happened last August also. Healed in 2 weeks of crating,
We had two chickens come down with this or something like it, Igor and Nanny. They both started to walk again, but then the symptoms came back with a vengeance. They both would eat, drink, make lots of noise, try to move around... but they just couldn't spring back. After nearly three months of isolation and trying our best, we put them down.
This black rooster is so beautiful, I want to see his children in the future black chicks like him would be great. Oh sorry I forgot also the blond angel in black dress is amazing ^^'
Thanks we don’t have hens of his breed (Ayam Cemani) but he could make some nice fibromelanistic (black gene he carries) barnyard mixes with our other hens
My chicken is around 3 months and just stopped walking 2 days ago. He has the leg paralysis and the curled toes but his poop is foamy yellow and green.. I’ve been looking into Mareks and it doesn’t seem like he has it. His eyes are fine, he can flap his wings and his legs are curled underneath him. He’s been eating and drinking so I’m really hoping it’s something curable like this! Thank you so much for this video!!
I have a chicken that can't stand. She's eats well, we give extra liquids by mouth but not sure what to do next. The hen is around 16 months old and was healthy I thought up to about a week ago. Actually she was sick about two weeks ago, got better for a few days and then got sick again. Treated first for coccidiosis but now wondering is it Marek's. Nice to know your chicken did recover.

This lady gave me two 2 month old chickens today, she won't even go to the chicken swap because she's so afraid of bringing something back and harming her flock of over 1000. I've been at her house, her set up is so beautiful and so clean. Last month one of her bantam hens couldn't walk, I guess she gave me her babies. They seem perfectly healthy EXCEPT they cannot stand just like the mom. We didn't notice this because they were in a brooder with other chickens their size and they look SO healthy outside of not being able to stand. She knew the mom had a vitamin deficiency, but it was too late. I am terrified it's mareks, but this lady is SO CAREFUL. I'm on the fence about culling these chickens as I already exposed one of my silkies to them and am afraid to expose my flock. This video has calmed my nerves and I can only hope and pray its just a vitamin B deficiency... just as their mother had, which would make sense it may have passed on through genetics if she laid a deficient egg that created them. *edit to add* they are bantams, which I'm finding out they do have deficiencies like silkies can. We are new to chickens.
How are they doing now? By the sounds of her setup I would also think it to not be Marek’s disease. They do not have splayed leg right? I would continue treating with b vitamins sometimes results can take some time. With her being that careful try to not worry, maybe keep them separated until you know for sure. Is the mom standing yet or under any treatment? Let me know an update and sorry you’re going through this ❤️ raising chickens is usually easy these things are not common please don’t get discouraged
@@BockBockBouquet it was a vitamin deficiency! They're like brand new birds now, walking, playing and roosting. Not sure of bantam are more susceptible, but they get vitamins every other day now
@Queen🥀Of🥀Ravens oh I’m so sorry. From what I hear from others who rescue these Cornish birds is they get so heavy their legs can’t hold up their weight. They were bred to be processed for meat at a young age. To keep her weight under control, rescue centers that keep this breed for longer lives as pets will have them on a controlled diet. They can’t eat free choice along with other chickens because they will keep eating and gaining weight
@Queen🥀Of🥀Ravens I’m so sorry, sounds like you’re doing all you can. As long as you keep her alive and eating and drinking to not dehydrate or get malnourished. She’s got her best shot at surviving long enough to get better
My chicken was a bit "slow" in last 2 weeks and 2 days ago I found her lying on the floor and she couldn't get up ( 1 hour earlier she was fine and eating), her legs were stiff and she had heavy breathing. I thought she was attacked or had a leg injury, a stroke ( it was really hot that day) but nothing visible was found. I put her into a box and took her home, about over two hours I fed her with siringe and electrolyte water. I thought first it was Mark, but she was better after 24 hours, even gave an egg. She got the B-komplex today in the morning, including vitamins for poultry. Just after 12 hours she started eating much more and started spreading her wings more, her legs are no longer stiff and started moving her fingers on her own. Btw.she had also a small bumblefoot,so I had to remove it ( not sure if everything got out, I did it for the first time). Thank you for your videos! Hope my girl will recover soon...
Need advice! I was so thankful to find this video. I have an Isa Brown 2.5 years old and she developed this condition. I have been treating her with poultry cell and nutritional yeast with fermented food. She eats and poops like a champ and if I get her standing upright she will stay upright for hours sometimes, but she's not showing any sign of improvement toward walking or even standing much on her own, and I have to make sure her food and water are right in front of her. I have been doing this for about a month and even set up a large board to give her a flat surface as that seems to help her stay upright more. Was I too late in treating her? Had the nerve damage gone too far already. What have others done to help their chickens learn to walk again?
Thank you for posting this!! I have suspected this with a few chickens of mine that died unnecessarily. Not a lot of info tho or specific regimens from vets
Thanks for tuning in! I’m sure most would just suspect their birds are dying of Marek’s disease as it’s more well known….but I really wanted to bring awareness to that’s not the only cause of paralysis out there and there are things we can proactively do ❤️
We used all 3 to be very aggressive with the treatment as his condition was so poor he couldn’t even stand up. But I would say the poultry cell orally syringed and the nutritional yeast in the feed would suffice. Scrambled eggs as a treat daily I would not skip on either to encourage eating. Thanks for tuning in!
My girl is trying so hard to bring pull her leg in. It is almost like she has no tendon in that leg. I started the vitamin regime that you recommended and i am seeing very slow but steady increase in strength and even a little more movement!
My little Lilly is on her side one leg - thought bumble foot and then the 2nd foot. I gave her a an Epsoms salts bath - she flapped her wings Aaah -she’s alive. But still not able to bear weight on her legs. I give her the egg yoke. She isn’t eating. I bought special electrolytes for chickens and took my time and feed with a syringe- sometime mixing the yoke with the liquid
Why is there lines across some of my words. Anyway - please give me more advice. As her bottom is getting red and pop on her feathers. Last night I put her on a towel so hope her bottom isn’t irritated. Please give me advice
Great video. We have a chicken that limps. We arent sure why. Her comb is nice and red. She seems fine. Thank you for the reminder to add more vitamins. we have chicken electrolytes that we add to their water every week or 2. Its been a while.. I never thought to give them nutritional yeast. We eat it on our popcorn 😏
Thanks for tuning in! She is probably a healthy girl if it was caused by this she could just have permanent nerve damage. Ozzy regained his mobility but he does stand stiff on one foot still, it hasn’t slowed him down one bit though. We’re just so glad he regained that much after not even being able to even stand. He’s a small guy and he’s actually our dominant rooster, over our huge heritage breed roosters surprisingly. He has so much spirit. Nutritional yeast is so good for them and us 😂 we especially add it to our ducklings feed as they require so much Niacin since they grow up so rapidly. Ducks are prone to leg issues so it’s really healthy for them 😊
@@chelseahappyhome duckling feed has the niacin in it but chick starter lacks it. Since we are always raising baby chicks we have plenty of chick starter on hand and it’s easier for us to supplement adding the nutritional yeast to the feed instead of purchasing duckling feed
Hello! Have been treating our little rooster since the summer with these symptoms and after viewing your video. Saw some early improvement but no longer. He just lays around on his side, flails around, I need to monitor him to ensure he eats and drinks. He's getting all the supplements recommended here including a daily oral dose of Poultry Cell. How long did it take your guy to show major improvement? I have Sir Duke inside the house away from the others but fear he'll never walk again. Appetite, etc is still good and normal.
Very helpful thank you 👍 my Silkie hen started limping then leg paralysed dragging it behind her - I give vitamins in water anyway but good to know B2 is the likely suspect. Just bought some brewers yeast (B vits). Hopefully she is improving, standing on both legs today 👍🐔
I'm going thru the same with my silky rooster. One day he was normal an the next the other chickens were attacking him. He was walking around a little bit not much. So I isolated him an for 3 days been giving him rooster booster poultry cell. He flaps around an is trying to get up but he can't stand. He seems fine not lathargic . Glad I saw this bc I was gonna put him down but have been putting it off
@@slayer1112man My Silkie hen is eating & drinking but taking her time to walk, I'm thankful it's not Marek's - hope your guy is improving, I've brought hens back with vits & cat food in the past, good luck 👍
Hello, I found your video when my hen had the same symptoms, started her on the poultry cell with egg mixed with it. I did noticed that her feet are dark color, will this help with that? Or is this something else I need to address? Thank you so much for your video and all the information you gave!
Thank you for all your videos! ❤️ Have you ever encountered a chicken with an enflamed bottom. Big like a softball. I have an old hen like 5-7 who's bottom is large/swollen. She is not egg bound. 🤒 I am 4-H alumni myself! 🍀
Thanks for tuning in, fellow 4-Her! I’m so sorry to hear that, does it feel like liquid? If so, it could be water belly, which unfortunately has no cure but is treatable. Using a needle syringe extract the liquid out to relieve her discomfort and make it easier for her to breathe. Treatment will have to be repeated as needed. Is it hard? I hope it’s not a cancerous tumor, a trip to the vet if you are able would be good
I was just wondering how long it took for your rooster to start to show signs of the toes uncurling after being on this regimen of B vitamins? In your video, you briefly mentioned Marek’s disease but didn’t focus on it. What is the difference to rule out Mare’s disease vs. a vitamin B deficiency? Our chickens had a parasite so we were advised to treat them with Corrid water for several weeks. They all seemed fine once we stopped the treatment and switched them back to regular water…until one hen started to not act like herself. Her tail is up but she slowly started to be by herself and not as spunky. Then she started to have trouble standing where we thought she injured her leg and thought it would heal in a few days but it went from off balance to not being able to move and toes curled. We don’t have this problem with our other 4 hens.She is such a sweet bird that I don’t want it to be Marek’s.
After it was done cooking and cooled off, I would just do a few shakes of the bottle kind of like I was just seasoning it. I would pour the egg over a little cup of his feed that also had some yeast and granular poultry booster mixed in as well. He didn’t have much appetite so when he was eating the egg he would take bites of his regular chicken feed as well which made me feel better to see him eat. I would just eyeball what to add kind of what seemed like a good ratio. Where I could see it but not too much almost like a trail mix for him lol. Thanks for tuning in ❤️
i just put my chicken down she got so bad she wouldnt even eat or drink, I tried putting water in her mouth with electrolytes, she flopped around coudlnt hold her wings tight, I tried the cell stuff and couldnt get her to take it, I tried the dropper and syring thing, she would try to eat but only take a bite or two then stop, she was like this for two weeks now I am going to make sure to give the cell stuff once a week in their water just in case. this broke my heart to ahve to do that, I did not know until well along it was not a injury but paralysis, I knew about vita b deficiency might be the cause I wish I would of been more forceful in giving that cell stuff into her beak. my inexpeirence really showed, but seeing your video late I have decided I will be better prepared.
Hi. So much comfort and gratitude for this video! My 6 month old hen has been wobbly with the occasional curly toes. Most of these products are not available in the Philippines but will settle for substitutes. It has been over a week and she remains puffy. Was your rooster puffed up during that whole time of recovery? ♥️ this happy ending.
There are foods you can feed high in riboflavin like eggs, spinach, salmon, asparagus, broccoli and peas. I’m sorry your girl isn’t feeling well, they can be puffy when they don’t feel well, just make sure you keep her eating and drinking do she can survive to recover. Marek’s disease can also make them puffy but is usually lethal as they develop tumors. I hope your girl just has a vitamin deficiency and doesn’t have Marek’s disease. If you have any more questions please feel free to ask ❤️
@@BockBockBouquet Thanks for the advice. I was able to get some nutritional yeast. She's up and about but still not at 100%. There have been improvements.
@@BockBockBouquet After a course of vitamin b complex tabs and some nutritional yeast for about 2 weeks, she’s almost back to normal. No more wobbly walks and curly toes. Thank you! 😍
I'm so lost with my chick right now.. i was given a guinea fowl chick, and it suddenly had curled toes, straight legs, no balance,, i've been watching all sorts of videos, it's now two weeks old, i started right away to use bandaids on it's toes,, spreading them apart,, i've had the tapes on and i change them out every two days just to check on the toes and make sure not crooked,, it lays on it's sides, flops around,, i keep holding it in my hands with both feet flat on my other hand, i devote every day to holding this chick standing/sitting on it's feet... i put vitamin B1 in it's water,, i'm so desperate right now... i hold it up to feed it and let it drink.. the other five birds are fine...
How long did it take your rooster to recover from that condition? Ive got a pullet that is suffering from the same thing right now. Ive been giving the B-vitamins orally every day. For the first week we were tube feeding her, now she will eat and drink on her own. She is kept in a dog crate by herself.
How is she now? Sorry you’re going through this. It can vary a few weeks to months. Depending on the bird. They can also relapse and need more retreatment.
@@BockBockBouquet She is doing better., but not fully recovered. She holds her one leg up a lot and when she walks she kind of hop/skips. Im leaning towards the fact that maybe it was an injury instead. We are about 7-8 weeks into this with her. I pray for a complete recovery. Still giving her vitamins though. Cant hurt.
@@BockBockBouquet Hi its me again hoping you can help. I treated that chicken for 8 weeks and she seemed to fully recover after that. That was this past summer. She did great all the rest of the summer and through winter up until now. In the past week or more she went downhill again and now cannot walk and just lays there. Could it be Mareks? Im afraid at this time I do not have another 8 weeks that I can do daily care with her again.
@@Shelzbells sorry to hear, ours relapsed again last year as well. I kept him in an isolation pen with vitamins and did less of an extreme treatment but fortunately he recovered again. Every birds circumstance will be different and I understand this is very difficult for you and for us we try to make sure an animal is not suffering and sometimes we must weigh what’s humane and consider euthanasia as possibility. I hope she recovers and gets better and it truly is not Marek’s disease
@@BockBockBouquet Im so happy to hear your bird recovered again. I do not know if ours would have or not this time around. Unfortunately because of timing and other things going on, and having to be out of town, i waant able to be with her and put in the extra time and care it would take for her to possibly recover, so we let her go. Very sad she was my favorite bird. Thank you for your replies that meant alot.
What would you do if you feel emotionally attached, giving b complex, but the environment isn't great, and you want the best for the guy (rooster) . Money is not flowing well and i have to travel far away just to be in a homeless position.
One of our chickens started limping today… She was fine this morning. Think maybe she landed wrong when she jumped out of the nest or the rooster jumped on her and she got hurt. She is eating and drinking just fine, no other symptoms so far. Pulled her out of the yard to recover. Rooster will not like it because she is his favorite. Going to try vitamin b therapy. Will see what happens.
Sadly I lost one of my favorite roosters last week to heat stress as we were at 108°F. I now suspect he may have had a vitamin B deficiency due to the high heat over this past month. I was keeping electrolytes out but when I saw him scoot over to it and not be able to get up on his feet to drink, I sprang into action but the damage was too much. He lived about 24 more hours and I wonder if it would have been better if I had euthanized him but I don't know if I could have done it. I just cried when he died because I feel as though I let him down. I get so attached to my pets. I will get some nutritional yeast and add that as a preventative for the others. Thank you for such informative videos!
I’m so sorry for you loss. Heat stress is very hard on chickens, once they go into heat stroke… it’s very hard to bring them back. Don’t be too hard on yourself, he knows you loved him. We are very attached to all our babies as well. If you want to watch this video I’ll link below, it’s all the things we do for our flock to help them during the summer. We are in the desert and 100-115F is our normal unfortunately, I feel so bad for the animals out in it but we try to do the best we can ruclips.net/video/-4ppLwzKiao/видео.html
Just on time, I've just noticed that 2 of my elder chickens are limping and I watched the video and put her in a hospital cage. She seems fine but just can't stand on her leg and put petroleum jelly as it eases pain but her feet doesn't seem to carry any visible causes of strain. Now I will try vitamin b deficiency and will keep you informed. Thanks a lot guys!
Hope they get better soon! They should recover quickly being in a hospital area and not being bothered by the rest of the flock. The vitamin B either way will be good for them, I would try vitamin E as well, hopefully it was just an injury from jumping off a roost or something ❤️
About a month ago one of my 7, 3 month old chicks started becoming off-balance. It was weird because she was thriving and then suddenly, this all started. She would flail around as if she were dizzy every time she tried to walk. If she is just standing completely still, she can keep her balance but will quickly tire and lie down. At first, it seemed she favored one leg (no visible injuries), then it seemed to be the both of them a few days later and up until today. There are no symptoms other than this. She doesn’t walk much and will often just lie around next to the food or water. We waited it out to see if she would heal up. She is still the same, no worse or better, a little less than a month later. Then, less than a week ago, we started having similar problems with our australorp. However, it seems to be a little different? She’ll sit with her feet peeking out from underneath herself often (I’m not sure if that is related) and won’t particularly trip around as much but will sort of waddle/stomp around. She also shows no symptoms other than leg weakness. Just yesterday, while checking on them, we noticed our sapphire gem was suddenly having similar problems. Her’s are a little different as well. They seem more along the lines of a vitamin-B2 deficiency, where she will lie slightly propped up on her legs with them being splayed out on the ground in front of her; toes occasionally curled. She, however, seems to still have the majority of control over her toes/feet. When she stands (toes are not curled, feet are splayed out), sometimes she will be alright for a moment until she will suddenly start tripping backward. Essentially, 3 of our 7 birds are displaying leg problems in what seems to be slightly different ways. We now have all three of them separated from the rest. They are being kept inside of a large bin with food, water, and all of the supplements/tips you suggested (starting yesterday). Since the beginning & currently, they are all eating/drinking fine. I’m also providing some extra supplements for our other chicks in hopes for prevention. I was wondering if you have any idea or can identify what our problem is. I feel it may be some sort of contagious or related problem. I can’t believe it’s all just a coincidence. I’m hoping all of these extra vitamins and minerals will end up helping them. I appreciate you taking the time to read this in advance.
I’m so sorry this is happening and the vitamin supplements could help, they most certainly won’t hurt. But since this does seem to be contagious I would definitely keep the affected birds quarantined away from the others. This does sound a lot like Marek’s disease and unfortunately if this is true, the birds may unfortunately not make it. I hope no one else starts to show symptoms. There is no cure for Marek’s virus and it starts attacking their nervous system and grows tumors and cancer in the body and that’s why birds showing symptoms usually succumb to it eventually. I really hope it’s not that and your poor babies get better. Raising animals and pets is very hard sometimes when you have bad days like this. Don’t let the bad days outweigh the good there are good times ahead. Again sorry for what’s going on just don’t give up but be prepared that the outcome may not be good for them
@@BockBockBouquet Thank you so much for your kind words. I really appreciate your response. I still have them quarantined from the other chicks and currently no other chicken is having any problems/showing symptoms. I’m happy to say that they seem to be doing better and one (who wasn’t able to even stand without falling) not only stood but actually walked; albeit, carefully and slowly. I’m holding out hope that they’ll get better while trying to stay prepared for any losses. I appreciate your help and advice.
@@BockBockBouquet Hello! This is gonna be a pretty hasty comment, but I’m very excited and wanted to share an update in case anyone else came past this. I have been doing every single thing you suggested in your video. Rooster booster, poultry cell, nutritional yeast, eggs, etc. All of the chickens have shown DRASTIC improvement in such a short amount of time. Two of them seem to be completely back to normal! One still seems a little hard on her feet, but she’s the one who was basically crippled for about a month, so I think she just needs some time to adjust to being able to walk again. Thanks you SO much for creating and posting such a helpful video! Hope you have a wonderful day/night. :) ♥️
Thank you SO MUCH for your video! I found my hen paralyzed in the coop on Thanksgiving and was sure she was dying. Two days later, she was still alive and started eating again, but still not walking, and her toes had curled in. I saw your video and started giving her scrambled eggs every day, and the whole flock now gets Rooster Booster and B12 supplements. One month later, my baby Reba is walking again! Bless you!
Bock Bock chicken is hands down, the very best chicken channel out there. Why? Because they cover everything from illnesses, ailments, coops and caring for chickens in general. Fantastic all the way around!
Wow! I’m so grateful for your video. I had a 5 month old hen who came down with curly toe. One of her legs was totally useless and limp. Her toes were all curled in and paralyzed stiff. She couldn’t walk at all. She hopped on one foot. I fed her a scrambled egg every day with about a teaspoon of liquid B2 and Nutritional Yeast flakes. I Put Poultry Cell in her water. I Made her a thick cardboard shoe, wrapping bandaids around each toe. Now after only 10 days she is FULLY RECOVERED! It’s just a miracle. She walks with no limp whatsoever. Like nothing was ever wrong with her. I can’t thank you enough!
Which b2 did you use? Same thing happening with ours. She won’t eat a full egg but does eat a decent amount of it!
Wow ! That’s great !!!
How long did it take for you to notice improvement. I can’t determine if it’s vitamin deficiency or mareks.
@@heritagepointe4025 I started to notice slight improvement after about four or five days. The foot became more pliable and less tightly curled.
Wow miss thank you we had the same problem and didn't know what to do. First he started limping on one leg and we thought it was broken so we separated him from the other chickens and the other leg was also doing it he started pretty much doing the splits and his toes started curling up. We came across your video and saw a couple of other people with success doing what you did in the comments and we tried it out and wow it's amazing We became very close and grew very fond of this little shit because he was the only one that hatched that the hen was laying on. To see him limping like that broke our hearts. We're very blessed to come across your channel. My rooster's/chicken we're not quite sure what it is yet but we think it's a rooster what's about a month and a 1/2 when he started not being able to walk we've been doing what he told us to do we got all the ingredients that you got and been feeding him scrambled eggs and he's made a full recovery he's now a little over 2 months.Thank you very much. God Bless miss
This video was extremely helpful to one of my Bantam Roo’s. It’s been about a month since his first noticeable paralysis. His toes and legs were not moving and kept falling over. He then spent about 2 to 3 weeks on his side. His Crown was very dark and purple. Since this video being watched he has slowly regained his strength. He is now back upright while learning to walk again. His Crown has since regained color and he is trying to stand and walk more and more each day. His appetite never left. On top of everything the lice he had was extreme. That video was a life saver for the whole flock! Thank you so much for all the advice and keep doing what y’all are doing!!
That is so heartwarming to hear! Hope he is still doing better in his road to recovery. We love helping people and glad we could pass on this information to you ❤️
@@BockBockBouquet just a quick update, he has started to get his very loud voice back! Also he has started to spend more time with the rest of his people in the flock daily. We are still giving him his regiment of vitamins and by next week he’ll be with the flock full time! Again thank you for everything y’all do and keep it up!!
@@aserider9988 that’s so good! You know a rooster is feeling himself when he’s crowing again! Happy to hear that news
@@BockBockBouquet please help can I use this for my quail? And how much can I give her?
Did you give the poultry cellular via syringe or put in the water? I’m having a hard time with the syringe and don’t want to stress her out more. Can you tell me what you did that worked? Thank you so so much. Currently this is what’s happening with ours.
Bless your precious heart immensely! My baby chicken is going through this now (well shes not a baby she is like 4 yrs of age but she will always be my baby:) And it breaks my heart to see her limping but now that I came across your video i have hope😊. Thank you so very much, may God bless you greatly for your loving and caring heart! With much appreciation!
I hope your baby gets better soon!! It’s so painful to see them not well, when we just want them to live their best and happy life ❤️ they are all our babies as well
Thanks!
My poor Roo is experiencing this right now. I just Google the symptoms and your video popped up.
I'm gonna be able to sleep tonight knowing he's got a good chance at recovery.
Thanks for sharing!
I hope this treatment works for him and he has a quick recovery
Thank you for this video! Came across it while trying to find help for my young chicken that couldn't walk. She started limping and it got worse to the point she just laid around. After no improvement from being inside for a week I found your video and started the supplements last night. She is already trying to stand up this morning and that's more than she's done all week. Thanks again! Hoping this put us on the right track to get her running around happy and back outside.
Oh good to hear! I hope your chicken has a speedy recovery and gets better soon! ❤️
How did your chicken do ? Did she get better ?
@@hellosunshine9915 It took some time but she got better. She hasn't had any issues since, and I stopped the supplements once she was back to normal.
@@charleechristian7413did you do everything she said to do ? I didn’t find the yeast today and I’m hesitant to do the things in the water because she had said she stoped doing them .
Thank you for your reply !
@@hellosunshine9915 I used Poultry Cell in her water some or on her food, nutritional yeast sprinkled on scrambled eggs and I gave her vitamin B complex on scrambled eggs some. I kept her inside for awhile then when I put her back with the flock she was separated in a large dog crate so she wouldn't get bullied and had good access to food and water. I'm sorry I don't remember how long it took her to get better but it took some time before she was 100%.
Hi I had to had a comment. My chicken was paralysis. and I had no idea what happen or what to do. I was having to go out and rotate her from side to side and feed and water by holding her up. I watched this video and went and bought the poultry cell. and been giving her by mouth for 2 weeks. Today she is 80percent better walking. Still a little wobbly. My husband can't believe she got better. He almost was going to put her down because she looked like she was suffering. I am so thankful you had this video. You saved my chicken life!!!!
I cannot thank you enough for this video! I am currently nursing my little polish hen back to health from what I suspected was a vitamin deficiency. After watching your video, I'm so happy to know that I'm on the right path to her recovery. I will be adding a scrambled egg to her food as well (once she starts regaining her appetite). Thank you so much for making this! Fingers crossed she walks again and can join her sisters in the yard soon!
Hey, hows your girl doing?
Very helpful video. I was checking on my chickens last Friday and found my rooster face down on the ground. He's usually fiesty, but let me pick him up. He was shivering a little when I brought him in so I held him until he warmed up. I couldn't see anything wrong with him. He seemed fine the day before. He woildn't eat or drink. He's almost 2 years old. I've had him for about 18 months.
I gave him molasses and water and Gatorade and currently have him inside in a box. I noticed when I was feeding him that his feet are curled up. He straightened them up to stand, but when we stopped supporting him, he put his face on the ground.
He's improved a little in the past week. He holds his head just off the ground as you can see in the picture. He has some mucous hanging out of his beak. He will now eat scrambled eggs. He can stand but doesn't walk. I have a bowl of watered down Gatorade for him to drink. We have been giving him Rooster Booster Poultry Cell vitamin supplement for the last 2 days and put diatomaceous earth on his eggs.
He's my first chicken so I don't know a whole lot. Any advice? What could this be and what else can we try? Thanks.
You’re doing the right thing, hope your boy gets better soon ❤️ just keep at it and don’t give up. If you keep him eating and drinking he’ll stay alive to get better. Maybe he injured his leg and needs time to heal. Sometimes large roosters hurt themselves from flying and landing down from a high roost because of their heavy body. Either way vitamin B is great for his nerves and health. I would add vitamin E and selenium as well as that cures wry neck and can cause them to loose balance and fall forward. I would stop with the Diatomaceous Earth as it is a well spread myth that it controls internal parasites, once wet inside their system it looses all effectiveness and ability to kill bugs and parasites. I would replace with nutritional yeast (brewers yeast) has a lot of healing vitamins in it. Good luck with your boy, sorry you’re going through this ❤️
❤❤❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 thank you so much for helping chickens ❤️ they're wonderful aborable pets ❤
May God bless you for helping so many ppl with their babies 🐣🥹🙏✝️♥️
Thanks for awesome content…the best RUclips channel for poultry lovers…pls post more frequently…love from Pakistan 🇵🇰
Thanks so much! 😊
Like so many, I too am grateful!! I watched this on October 6, 2023. Today, November 12, 2023, our hen is well and integrated back into the flock.
Thank you!!
You helped me with your bumblefoot video, I had to do 'surgery' on one of the chickens a few weeks ago...it took about 3 tries to get it all, with couple of weeks break in between. But now she is virtually back to normal!
That’s so good to hear!!! Glad your girl is doing much better now ❤️
This is exactly what our Crested Cream Legbar hen, Penny, has been going through! It started as a limp and has progressed to both feet with curled up toes and an inability to stand and walk. We are starting this treatment today! We had already separated her with vitamin water, put her food and water close, and she has had scrambled eggs two days in a row. So hopefully this was a good start while we hunt down the other treatments.
Thank you so much for this video!
Do you think it's a lack of vitamins in the feed? Or is it just one bird of many that is affected? Glad Penny is better❣
Update to my 1,5 month old comment: my chicken started getting up after 1 month and after 1,5 month she is walking around the yard and garden, getting better every day, slowly ready to return to her fellow mates. You saved my chicken's life - thank you very much!!! Note: I couldn't get the riboflavin for poultry, so I bought out of despair the human B-complex tablets and sirup ( also suitable for kids) at the pharmacy, adding regular poultry vitamins, with proper diet ( also eggs and probiotics) and it worked. Better than nothing :-)
Thank God for you! I brought my Polly (9week pullet) to the poultry vet about a month ago, she suddently couldn’t walk, the vet said it’s like Mareks but without any other symptoms. My heart breaks each time. I got all the vitamins and B complex to support her healing but none worked the past month. She stopped drinking water unless I use syringe.
I watches your video last night and ordered right away the yeast and non medicated feeds, including the yeast and today, I cried tears of joy! after feeding her scrambled eggs, seasoned with yeast seasoning and some poultry cell and b-12, she was drinking her water (mixed also with some vit B complex)!
I’m pretty positive she’ll recover!
I have had 3 chicks completely paralyzed.. otherwise seemed completely healthy.. not lethargic or anything. They all regained their walking abilities after about a week.

This was so helpful we could not find anyone who knew what was wrong with our frizzle. She has been limping and dragging her foot for 4 days now. We just purchased everything and starting treatment today
Thank you this video was just what I needed - have a lame hen and she is doing better now has partially regained use of one leg and we're hoping for a full recovery - she is perked up and is gaining weight since starting your protocol.
Your videos are always soo helpful. Thank you for taking the time to share with us so we can learn along with you.
I'm currently dealing with 2 birds with similar symptoms. I'm terrified of mareks, but trying this first.
I think this is what is happening to my hen - she's limping but has no visible injury and no swelling to indicate bumblefoot. They would get upset if you touched a sensitive spot, right? I even checked for a lodged egg. Poor hen. Gave her some nutritional yeast after watching your video, waiting for the other things to arrive and plan on the scrambled egg idea. Thanks so much for putting this on RUclips! You are a Godsend!
Thank you so much for this video. We have a chicken about 3 months old that was walking normal one day and the next she was stumbling around. Within a day or two she was not standing and was moving around on her hocks. She seemed perfectly fine. No bumblefoot. No injury. None of the other hens in our flock of 24 had symptoms. Found your video after trying to research the problem. We are about 2-2 1/2 weeks into the vitamins your recommended and she is now back carefully walking in her tip toes. One leg has recovered quicker than the other but she is improving. Thanks so much for making this video!
Oh so glad to hear she is improving, continue treatment even a few weeks after she appears recovered fully to prevent a relapse. Our boy relapses time to time, seems like once a year. This may be a problem she’ll have for the rest of her life and need more vitamins than the other flock. When we see symptoms and give him riboflavin vitamins he always recovers again
@@BockBockBouquet Good to know. We will certainly keep that in mind and make sure she gets some additional vitamins on a regular basis. Thanks so much!
I had a chicken that couldn't walk and she lived on the floor for 8 months until she got an eye injury. I was feeding her from a syringe for 8 days until she passed away in January of 2022. Just a few days before this video was published.
We are so sorry for the loss of your hen. May she Rest In Peace ❤️
@@BockBockBouquet We could tell something was going to happen when she was a chick because her eyes were smaller than the rest of them and she didn't act right.
@@collectortube sometimes they just aren’t born right and it’s out of our control. We can only do our best to try and give them the best life possible ❤️
I had to update my sweet chicken is 100% better Thank you so much for your video!!!! you saved her life.
Thank you so much!! So helpful.. My Rosie is back with the other hens in coop! It was a rough month since Sept 2nd .. 2weeks of nothing working… went out and purchased your recommendations. Had her in house with me to supervise.. the others were not kind to her. I locked the mean girls up for almost a week..Rosie is back to laying eggs too!❤
Oh so good to hear Rosie is doing better!!
Thanks to this video, I found out that my guy is most likely vitamin b deficient. Little Garrus stopped walking less than a week ago. I also ruled out other diseases/disorders and was running out of ideas on what was going on. I gave him a vitamin b injection and am giving him the oral supplements in his feed as well. He'll continue to get a daily injection until he starts trying to move around on his own again.
Garrus is the best chicken I've ever owned. It would completely break my heart if I lost him! He's not only my show roo. He's my favorite little guy.
Oh I am sorry you are going through this. I hope he is doing better please update me if you see this. Sending ❤️
Your videos are soo helpful and informative! Thank you so much for producing them! Bless you!
Thank you SO much for this video. I followed your instructions, and my 7 week old chick, after 2 weeks of not being able to walk, is slowly walking!!!
That’s great to hear! ❤️
@BockBockBouquet How long should I continue the supplements? She is not wanting to drink or receive the poultry cell anymore. I am still able to sprinkle the nutritional yeast on foods.
Thank you. She is completely back to running and perching. I still notice some sort of shaking on one leg once in a while, but she is growing and happy. ❤️
Thank you for creating this video. ❤ After digging around online trying to work out what could be causing these symptoms (thinking it may even just be old age and or moulting) our hen couldn't stand and lost all weight. I persistently have been looking after her, wormed and started on antibiotics, she is eating more now (have been feeding her mainly eggs, bananas, kangaroo mince, and yoghurt) she has been improving (standing and increased appetite). Now that I know this information about vitamin b deficiency i will start treating her tomorrow.
Your videos are always so informative. Thank you.
This has been one of the most informative videos for how to treat this. Thank you so much!!!
Aww thanks so much! Ozzy is now doing well and able to walk amongst the flock again, not 100% but he gets around just fine.
@@BockBockBouquet What is the time frame I’m looking at for recovery? My Hennie I noticed was limping on Saturday evening i immediately took her inside and started poultry cell. I didn’t realize I needed unmedicated feed so I added that on Monday evening. So she’s had poultry cell direct daily, poultry booster in her feed and nutritional yeast for 2 days. I’ve heard it can take several weeks. She kinda just falls around but will try and walk. She is sleeping a lot, I’m guessing the falling around is tiresome. Other than that she is eating and I’m using a syringe to give her water just so I know she’s drinking. Anything else I should try? Or just give it time?
I just want to thank you. Found this video when one of my hen couldn't walk. Got poultry cell right away in our coop and is feeding her 2ml once a day. They don't have the other two products. The poutry booster I got from tractor supply has millions tiny little bugs and I put it in the freezer so no more bugs crawling around. Regardless, she doesn't like to eat that. Will order the yeast. Anyhow, she can stand a little bit now. Thanks!
Oh good to hear I hope she makes a full recovery! ❤️❤️
Awesome Video with information that was very helpful to me and my Chickies. Thank you!
I am so thankful for this video. I have a hen doing to same thing and I started pushing vitamins Saturday when I found her. I believe it is due to the corid treatment that I had to do last week. It just wiped out her vitamins. So im trying to get her well and replenish them.
Thank you I was search this video because my chicken almost can walk and stand thank you soooooooo much☺️😊🤩🥰
Thank You! I Though It was Marek's Disease., All Symptoms you've mentioned has observed and confirmed, Positive to B-Complex Deficiency.. Love From Philippines
Thanks for saving my sweet Minnie!
He's beautiful! Glad he recovered. I have chicken who has walking problems. We're not sure what it is but not vitamin
Gosh you are a wonderful source of information! Thanks ahead of any problems other than bullying here.
Hi, thank you for your well put together video. It was a good explanation. Human vitamin-b supplements can also be bought in bulk powder. I have pet show chickens. I've also looked to the pigeon industry to see how they handle illness with their $400k racing pigeons.
Excellent video. I have one just started limping yesterday, culled toes today. Bought from Hoovers from TSC so hope they vaccinated against Marek's and this is just a vitamin def
Hey !!!! Thank you so much for this video we have a 3 week old golden lace pullet and she was laying down curled toes walking on her knees she was being trampled so we separated her gave her poultry cell and a new starter mash for all of them with B12 in it she's been eating and drinking like crazy and for the last week we've kept her separated checked on her an hour ago and she's walking !!!!!
Damn you are so smart and such a good caring person and your super pretty I never thought there was so much to learn about these chickens I got thank you so much
Great video and information! Thank you so much for sharing!
This video saved my sweet Minnie. Around 16 weeks she started with a slight limp to toes curling, to not being able to walk at all in just a matter of days. A daily scrambled egg with nutritional yeast everyday. I rotated daily either topping it with poultry cell or vitamin B complex. It’s been 8 weeks and I just integrated her back in with the flock. She’s still got some healing and strengthening to do so she can be on her feet all day but she is doing awesome. Hoping she will be able to work her way back up that pecking order soon!
Which vitamin b complex?
@@LauraJames-qz4kcSorry for the late response. I just picked up any old Vitamin B complex from Walmart. It comes in capsules and you can sprinkle it on a scrambled egg. After a few months her foot started to curl again. Looks like I am going to have to keep her on a regular dose of it. I already feed a high quality feed. All my other chickens are fine.
i have searched the cause of this desease on many channels but i found ur channel very helpfull my checkens have the same issue very gr8 advice thx
I hope your chicken recovers soon!
I'm so thankful for your video.....my chicken is going through this now..she is alert...eating Nd drinking..but she can't move.or stand..or walk..it's sooo awful
We hope she recovers ❤️ so sorry
Feb 2024 Ny leghorn hen 8 months old Josie was not able to walk on her right leg but over night switched to left leg & right leg healed! Its been 2 weeks now she still cannot do anything but drag leg. No injury noted on x ray at vet. Vet thought mareks but no other symptoms ! vet just has no idea. So I have powder & liquid poultry cell started yesterday. I hope she heals. this happened last August also. Healed in 2 weeks of crating,
Thank you for all the info! I'm going to try this with my lame chicken and let you know if I have the same success as you 🐔
We had two chickens come down with this or something like it, Igor and Nanny. They both started to walk again, but then the symptoms came back with a vengeance. They both would eat, drink, make lots of noise, try to move around... but they just couldn't spring back. After nearly three months of isolation and trying our best, we put them down.
Sorry for your loss, sometimes euthanasia is the kindest thing you can do
Great, informative video. Thank you!
Thank you!
Great vid! I have a tiny 2 week old chick that is becoming progressively unbalanced. The other chicks are all ok, but I’ll add B-vitamins. Thank you!
Hope the baby gets better soon! Remember to continue the vitamins for a few weeks after they get better to prevent relapse
This black rooster is so beautiful, I want to see his children in the future black chicks like him would be great. Oh sorry I forgot also the blond angel in black dress is amazing ^^'
Thanks we don’t have hens of his breed (Ayam Cemani) but he could make some nice fibromelanistic (black gene he carries) barnyard mixes with our other hens
You are so nice I would all the world was like you are
Thank you for the information,you are truly awesome
Thank you! 😊
It was a very helpful information thank you so much😍 and thank you for rescuing this rooster 👏🏻
Timely. Thanks.
This video was SO helpful! Thank you! We are currently dealing with this right now. How long did you give the poultry cell?
My chicken is around 3 months and just stopped walking 2 days ago. He has the leg paralysis and the curled toes but his poop is foamy yellow and green.. I’ve been looking into Mareks and it doesn’t seem like he has it. His eyes are fine, he can flap his wings and his legs are curled underneath him. He’s been eating and drinking so I’m really hoping it’s something curable like this! Thank you so much for this video!!
I have a chicken that can't stand. She's eats well, we give extra liquids by mouth but not sure what to do next. The hen is around 16 months old and was healthy I thought up to about a week ago. Actually she was sick about two weeks ago, got better for a few days and then got sick again. Treated first for coccidiosis but now wondering is it Marek's. Nice to know your chicken did recover.

Thank you so much for this informative video! How long did it take for him to fully recover?
This lady gave me two 2 month old chickens today, she won't even go to the chicken swap because she's so afraid of bringing something back and harming her flock of over 1000. I've been at her house, her set up is so beautiful and so clean. Last month one of her bantam hens couldn't walk, I guess she gave me her babies. They seem perfectly healthy EXCEPT they cannot stand just like the mom. We didn't notice this because they were in a brooder with other chickens their size and they look SO healthy outside of not being able to stand. She knew the mom had a vitamin deficiency, but it was too late. I am terrified it's mareks, but this lady is SO CAREFUL. I'm on the fence about culling these chickens as I already exposed one of my silkies to them and am afraid to expose my flock. This video has calmed my nerves and I can only hope and pray its just a vitamin B deficiency... just as their mother had, which would make sense it may have passed on through genetics if she laid a deficient egg that created them.
*edit to add* they are bantams, which I'm finding out they do have deficiencies like silkies can. We are new to chickens.
How are they doing now? By the sounds of her setup I would also think it to not be Marek’s disease. They do not have splayed leg right? I would continue treating with b vitamins sometimes results can take some time. With her being that careful try to not worry, maybe keep them separated until you know for sure. Is the mom standing yet or under any treatment? Let me know an update and sorry you’re going through this ❤️ raising chickens is usually easy these things are not common please don’t get discouraged
@@BockBockBouquet it was a vitamin deficiency! They're like brand new birds now, walking, playing and roosting. Not sure of bantam are more susceptible, but they get vitamins every other day now
@@celesteforslund4186 oh so glad to hear they’re doing better! ❤️
@Queen🥀Of🥀Ravens oh I’m so sorry. From what I hear from others who rescue these Cornish birds is they get so heavy their legs can’t hold up their weight. They were bred to be processed for meat at a young age. To keep her weight under control, rescue centers that keep this breed for longer lives as pets will have them on a controlled diet. They can’t eat free choice along with other chickens because they will keep eating and gaining weight
@Queen🥀Of🥀Ravens I’m so sorry, sounds like you’re doing all you can. As long as you keep her alive and eating and drinking to not dehydrate or get malnourished. She’s got her best shot at surviving long enough to get better
Best channel thankyou
Aw thank you!
Thank you I was clueless you have helped me more than you know I will up dare you
I hope your chicken gets better soon ❤️
Thanks ❤
Great video
Thank you
My chicken was a bit "slow" in last 2 weeks and 2 days ago I found her lying on the floor and she couldn't get up ( 1 hour earlier she was fine and eating), her legs were stiff and she had heavy breathing. I thought she was attacked or had a leg injury, a stroke ( it was really hot that day) but nothing visible was found. I put her into a box and took her home, about over two hours I fed her with siringe and electrolyte water. I thought first it was Mark, but she was better after 24 hours, even gave an egg. She got the B-komplex today in the morning, including vitamins for poultry. Just after 12 hours she started eating much more and started spreading her wings more, her legs are no longer stiff and started moving her fingers on her own. Btw.she had also a small bumblefoot,so I had to remove it ( not sure if everything got out, I did it for the first time). Thank you for your videos! Hope my girl will recover soon...
Need advice! I was so thankful to find this video. I have an Isa Brown 2.5 years old and she developed this condition. I have been treating her with poultry cell and nutritional yeast with fermented food. She eats and poops like a champ and if I get her standing upright she will stay upright for hours sometimes, but she's not showing any sign of improvement toward walking or even standing much on her own, and I have to make sure her food and water are right in front of her. I have been doing this for about a month and even set up a large board to give her a flat surface as that seems to help her stay upright more. Was I too late in treating her? Had the nerve damage gone too far already. What have others done to help their chickens learn to walk again?
Thank you for posting this!! I have suspected this with a few chickens of mine that died unnecessarily. Not a lot of info tho or specific regimens from vets
Thanks for tuning in! I’m sure most would just suspect their birds are dying of Marek’s disease as it’s more well known….but I really wanted to bring awareness to that’s not the only cause of paralysis out there and there are things we can proactively do ❤️
@@BockBockBouquet I appreciate that! I like to throw everything I can at a bird and figure it out too!
@@MrsNewman759 that’s awesome, love that there’s good chicken mamas out there like us that love their birds
I’m so sad idk what to do my chicken got better after watching this video but now he’s back to where he can’t stand or walk 😢
Thank you for the video! Do I have to use all those three products or just one of them?m
We used all 3 to be very aggressive with the treatment as his condition was so poor he couldn’t even stand up. But I would say the poultry cell orally syringed and the nutritional yeast in the feed would suffice. Scrambled eggs as a treat daily I would not skip on either to encourage eating. Thanks for tuning in!
My girl is trying so hard to bring pull her leg in. It is almost like she has no tendon in that leg. I started the vitamin regime that you recommended and i am seeing very slow but steady increase in strength and even a little more movement!
My little Lilly is on her side one leg - thought bumble foot and then the 2nd foot. I gave her a an Epsoms salts bath - she flapped her wings Aaah -she’s alive. But still not able to bear weight on her legs. I give her the egg yoke. She isn’t eating. I bought special electrolytes for chickens and took my time and feed with a syringe- sometime mixing the yoke with the liquid
Why is there lines across some of my words. Anyway - please give me more advice. As her bottom is getting red and pop on her feathers. Last night I put her on a towel so hope her bottom isn’t irritated. Please give me advice
Great video. We have a chicken that limps. We arent sure why. Her comb is nice and red. She seems fine. Thank you for the reminder to add more vitamins. we have chicken electrolytes that we add to their water every week or 2. Its been a while.. I never thought to give them nutritional yeast. We eat it on our popcorn 😏
Thanks for tuning in! She is probably a healthy girl if it was caused by this she could just have permanent nerve damage. Ozzy regained his mobility but he does stand stiff on one foot still, it hasn’t slowed him down one bit though. We’re just so glad he regained that much after not even being able to even stand. He’s a small guy and he’s actually our dominant rooster, over our huge heritage breed roosters surprisingly. He has so much spirit. Nutritional yeast is so good for them and us 😂 we especially add it to our ducklings feed as they require so much Niacin since they grow up so rapidly. Ducks are prone to leg issues so it’s really healthy for them 😊
@@BockBockBouquet I didn't know that about ducks.
@@chelseahappyhome duckling feed has the niacin in it but chick starter lacks it. Since we are always raising baby chicks we have plenty of chick starter on hand and it’s easier for us to supplement adding the nutritional yeast to the feed instead of purchasing duckling feed
Hello! Have been treating our little rooster since the summer with these symptoms and after viewing your video. Saw some early improvement but no longer. He just lays around on his side, flails around, I need to monitor him to ensure he eats and drinks. He's getting all the supplements recommended here including a daily oral dose of Poultry Cell. How long did it take your guy to show major improvement? I have Sir Duke inside the house away from the others but fear he'll never walk again. Appetite, etc is still good and normal.
Thank you ❤ can I give those vitamins whit a suspicion of marek ?
Very helpful thank you 👍 my Silkie hen started limping then leg paralysed dragging it behind her - I give vitamins in water anyway but good to know B2 is the likely suspect. Just bought some brewers yeast (B vits). Hopefully she is improving, standing on both legs today 👍🐔
I'm going thru the same with my silky rooster. One day he was normal an the next the other chickens were attacking him. He was walking around a little bit not much. So I isolated him an for 3 days been giving him rooster booster poultry cell. He flaps around an is trying to get up but he can't stand. He seems fine not lathargic . Glad I saw this bc I was gonna put him down but have been putting it off
@@slayer1112man My Silkie hen is eating & drinking but taking her time to walk, I'm thankful it's not Marek's - hope your guy is improving, I've brought hens back with vits & cat food in the past, good luck 👍
I have a hen that is doing this.We have checked everything with her.
Hi pls did u mix feed with scrambled eggs?
Hello, I found your video when my hen had the same symptoms, started her on the poultry cell with egg mixed with it. I did noticed that her feet are dark color, will this help with that? Or is this something else I need to address? Thank you so much for your video and all the information you gave!
I just brought nutridrench!! I spent over 100 dollars for it from Aus 😭😭😭 aww man
Thank you for all your videos! ❤️
Have you ever encountered a chicken with an enflamed bottom. Big like a softball. I have an old hen like 5-7 who's bottom is large/swollen. She is not egg bound. 🤒
I am 4-H alumni myself! 🍀
Thanks for tuning in, fellow 4-Her! I’m so sorry to hear that, does it feel like liquid? If so, it could be water belly, which unfortunately has no cure but is treatable. Using a needle syringe extract the liquid out to relieve her discomfort and make it easier for her to breathe. Treatment will have to be repeated as needed. Is it hard? I hope it’s not a cancerous tumor, a trip to the vet if you are able would be good
I was just wondering how long it took for your rooster to start to show signs of the toes uncurling after being on this regimen of B vitamins? In your video, you briefly mentioned Marek’s disease but didn’t focus on it. What is the difference to rule out Mare’s disease vs. a vitamin B deficiency? Our chickens had a parasite so we were advised to treat them with Corrid water for several weeks. They all seemed fine once we stopped the treatment and switched them back to regular water…until one hen started to not act like herself. Her tail is up but she slowly started to be by herself and not as spunky. Then she started to have trouble standing where we thought she injured her leg and thought it would heal in a few days but it went from off balance to not being able to move and toes curled. We don’t have this problem with our other 4 hens.She is such a sweet bird that I don’t want it to be Marek’s.
Where you got ayam cemani rooster ?
Thanks for the video! How much yeast do you use in the eggs you made for him?
After it was done cooking and cooled off, I would just do a few shakes of the bottle kind of like I was just seasoning it. I would pour the egg over a little cup of his feed that also had some yeast and granular poultry booster mixed in as well. He didn’t have much appetite so when he was eating the egg he would take bites of his regular chicken feed as well which made me feel better to see him eat. I would just eyeball what to add kind of what seemed like a good ratio. Where I could see it but not too much almost like a trail mix for him lol. Thanks for tuning in ❤️
i just put my chicken down she got so bad she wouldnt even eat or drink, I tried putting water in her mouth with electrolytes, she flopped around coudlnt hold her wings tight, I tried the cell stuff and couldnt get her to take it, I tried the dropper and syring thing, she would try to eat but only take a bite or two then stop, she was like this for two weeks now I am going to make sure to give the cell stuff once a week in their water just in case. this broke my heart to ahve to do that, I did not know until well along it was not a injury but paralysis, I knew about vita b deficiency might be the cause I wish I would of been more forceful in giving that cell stuff into her beak. my inexpeirence really showed, but seeing your video late I have decided I will be better prepared.
Hi. So much comfort and gratitude for this video! My 6 month old hen has been wobbly with the occasional curly toes. Most of these products are not available in the Philippines but will settle for substitutes. It has been over a week and she remains puffy. Was your rooster puffed up during that whole time of recovery? ♥️ this happy ending.
There are foods you can feed high in riboflavin like eggs, spinach, salmon, asparagus, broccoli and peas. I’m sorry your girl isn’t feeling well, they can be puffy when they don’t feel well, just make sure you keep her eating and drinking do she can survive to recover. Marek’s disease can also make them puffy but is usually lethal as they develop tumors. I hope your girl just has a vitamin deficiency and doesn’t have Marek’s disease. If you have any more questions please feel free to ask ❤️
@@BockBockBouquet Thanks for the advice. I was able to get some nutritional yeast.
She's up and about but still not at 100%. There have been improvements.
@@daichisan29 hope she feels better soon ❤️
@@BockBockBouquet After a course of vitamin b complex tabs and some nutritional yeast for about 2 weeks, she’s almost back to normal. No more wobbly walks and curly toes. Thank you! 😍
@@daichisan29 oh so good to hear! ❤️ glad she’s doing better
I'm so lost with my chick right now.. i was given a guinea fowl chick, and it suddenly had curled toes, straight legs, no balance,, i've been watching all sorts of videos, it's now two weeks old, i started right away to use bandaids on it's toes,, spreading them apart,, i've had the tapes on and i change them out every two days just to check on the toes and make sure not crooked,, it lays on it's sides, flops around,, i keep holding it in my hands with both feet flat on my other hand, i devote every day to holding this chick standing/sitting on it's feet... i put vitamin B1 in it's water,, i'm so desperate right now... i hold it up to feed it and let it drink.. the other five birds are fine...
How long did it take your rooster to recover from that condition? Ive got a pullet that is suffering from the same thing right now. Ive been giving the B-vitamins orally every day. For the first week we were tube feeding her, now she will eat and drink on her own. She is kept in a dog crate by herself.
How is she now? Sorry you’re going through this. It can vary a few weeks to months. Depending on the bird. They can also relapse and need more retreatment.
@@BockBockBouquet She is doing better., but not fully recovered. She holds her one leg up a lot and when she walks she kind of hop/skips. Im leaning towards the fact that maybe it was an injury instead. We are about 7-8 weeks into this with her. I pray for a complete recovery. Still giving her vitamins though. Cant hurt.
@@BockBockBouquet Hi its me again hoping you can help. I treated that chicken for 8 weeks and she seemed to fully recover after that. That was this past summer. She did great all the rest of the summer and through winter up until now. In the past week or more she went downhill again and now cannot walk and just lays there. Could it be Mareks? Im afraid at this time I do not have another 8 weeks that I can do daily care with her again.
@@Shelzbells sorry to hear, ours relapsed again last year as well. I kept him in an isolation pen with vitamins and did less of an extreme treatment but fortunately he recovered again. Every birds circumstance will be different and I understand this is very difficult for you and for us we try to make sure an animal is not suffering and sometimes we must weigh what’s humane and consider euthanasia as possibility. I hope she recovers and gets better and it truly is not Marek’s disease
@@BockBockBouquet Im so happy to hear your bird recovered again. I do not know if ours would have or not this time around. Unfortunately because of timing and other things going on, and having to be out of town, i waant able to be with her and put in the extra time and care it would take for her to possibly recover, so we let her go. Very sad she was my favorite bird. Thank you for your replies that meant alot.
How long can tou have them on this treatment? How many months will he be able to walk ?
What would you do if you feel emotionally attached, giving b complex, but the environment isn't great, and you want the best for the guy (rooster) . Money is not flowing well and i have to travel far away just to be in a homeless position.
Can those product's be used for pigeons as well?
One of our chickens started limping today… She was fine this morning. Think maybe she landed wrong when she jumped out of the nest or the rooster jumped on her and she got hurt. She is eating and drinking just fine, no other symptoms so far. Pulled her out of the yard to recover. Rooster will not like it because she is his favorite. Going to try vitamin b therapy. Will see what happens.
Hopefully she just injured it and will be good as new in a few days! The B vitamins will be good for that as well. Hope she’s better soon!
Sadly I lost one of my favorite roosters last week to heat stress as we were at 108°F. I now suspect he may have had a vitamin B deficiency due to the high heat over this past month. I was keeping electrolytes out but when I saw him scoot over to it and not be able to get up on his feet to drink, I sprang into action but the damage was too much. He lived about 24 more hours and I wonder if it would have been better if I had euthanized him but I don't know if I could have done it. I just cried when he died because I feel as though I let him down. I get so attached to my pets. I will get some nutritional yeast and add that as a preventative for the others. Thank you for such informative videos!
I’m so sorry for you loss. Heat stress is very hard on chickens, once they go into heat stroke… it’s very hard to bring them back. Don’t be too hard on yourself, he knows you loved him. We are very attached to all our babies as well. If you want to watch this video I’ll link below, it’s all the things we do for our flock to help them during the summer. We are in the desert and 100-115F is our normal unfortunately, I feel so bad for the animals out in it but we try to do the best we can

Just on time, I've just noticed that 2 of my elder chickens are limping and I watched the video and put her in a hospital cage. She seems fine but just can't stand on her leg and put petroleum jelly as it eases pain but her feet doesn't seem to carry any visible causes of strain. Now I will try vitamin b deficiency and will keep you informed. Thanks a lot guys!
Hope they get better soon! They should recover quickly being in a hospital area and not being bothered by the rest of the flock. The vitamin B either way will be good for them, I would try vitamin E as well, hopefully it was just an injury from jumping off a roost or something ❤️
@@BockBockBouquet Many thanks for replying back. Still on one leg after four days. :(
@@jammy92955 give her time she may take a month or so. Our Ozzy didn’t show signs of improvement for a couple of weeks ❤️
About a month ago one of my 7, 3 month old chicks started becoming off-balance. It was weird because she was thriving and then suddenly, this all started. She would flail around as if she were dizzy every time she tried to walk. If she is just standing completely still, she can keep her balance but will quickly tire and lie down.
At first, it seemed she favored one leg (no visible injuries), then it seemed to be the both of them a few days later and up until today. There are no symptoms other than this. She doesn’t walk much and will often just lie around next to the food or water. We waited it out to see if she would heal up. She is still the same, no worse or better, a little less than a month later.
Then, less than a week ago, we started having similar problems with our australorp. However, it seems to be a little different? She’ll sit with her feet peeking out from underneath herself often (I’m not sure if that is related) and won’t particularly trip around as much but will sort of waddle/stomp around. She also shows no symptoms other than leg weakness.
Just yesterday, while checking on them, we noticed our sapphire gem was suddenly having similar problems. Her’s are a little different as well. They seem more along the lines of a vitamin-B2 deficiency, where she will lie slightly propped up on her legs with them being splayed out on the ground in front of her; toes occasionally curled. She, however, seems to still have the majority of control over her toes/feet. When she stands (toes are not curled, feet are splayed out), sometimes she will be alright for a moment until she will suddenly start tripping backward.
Essentially, 3 of our 7 birds are displaying leg problems in what seems to be slightly different ways. We now have all three of them separated from the rest. They are being kept inside of a large bin with food, water, and all of the supplements/tips you suggested (starting yesterday). Since the beginning & currently, they are all eating/drinking fine.
I’m also providing some extra supplements for our other chicks in hopes for prevention.
I was wondering if you have any idea or can identify what our problem is. I feel it may be some sort of contagious or related problem. I can’t believe it’s all just a coincidence. I’m hoping all of these extra vitamins and minerals will end up helping them.
I appreciate you taking the time to read this in advance.
I’m so sorry this is happening and the vitamin supplements could help, they most certainly won’t hurt. But since this does seem to be contagious I would definitely keep the affected birds quarantined away from the others. This does sound a lot like Marek’s disease and unfortunately if this is true, the birds may unfortunately not make it. I hope no one else starts to show symptoms. There is no cure for Marek’s virus and it starts attacking their nervous system and grows tumors and cancer in the body and that’s why birds showing symptoms usually succumb to it eventually. I really hope it’s not that and your poor babies get better. Raising animals and pets is very hard sometimes when you have bad days like this. Don’t let the bad days outweigh the good there are good times ahead. Again sorry for what’s going on just don’t give up but be prepared that the outcome may not be good for them
@@BockBockBouquet Thank you so much for your kind words. I really appreciate your response. I still have them quarantined from the other chicks and currently no other chicken is having any problems/showing symptoms. I’m happy to say that they seem to be doing better and one (who wasn’t able to even stand without falling) not only stood but actually walked; albeit, carefully and slowly. I’m holding out hope that they’ll get better while trying to stay prepared for any losses. I appreciate your help and advice.
@@BockBockBouquet Hello! This is gonna be a pretty hasty comment, but I’m very excited and wanted to share an update in case anyone else came past this. I have been doing every single thing you suggested in your video. Rooster booster, poultry cell, nutritional yeast, eggs, etc. All of the chickens have shown DRASTIC improvement in such a short amount of time. Two of them seem to be completely back to normal! One still seems a little hard on her feet, but she’s the one who was basically crippled for about a month, so I think she just needs some time to adjust to being able to walk again. Thanks you SO much for creating and posting such a helpful video! Hope you have a wonderful day/night. :) ♥️
@@robinbobby Can you give an update?
@@jme2659 I know this is about a year later, but they all healed within 1-3 weeks and are thriving to this day!
