Description

Selenium & Vitamin E Gel 80ml – Why We Like It:

Selenium & Vitamin E Gel from Durvet contains a vitamin E level of 200 IU & selenium 23.2mcg per 2gm (1ml) dose. This product is to be used as the sole source of selenium. This product is marketed for use in sheep and goats but has proven very useful in treating chickens with wry neck.

The balance of selenium and vitamin E in this product is ideal and safe when giving this product to your chicken, that is affected by wry neck, for several weeks. We generally recommend you give your chicken 1ml/kg of body weight (Vitamin E 200mg/Selenium 23.2mcg) twice daily if treating for wry neck for up to three weeks. If your chickens mobility is affected, giving a b complex, such as Nekton-B-Komplex or DAC Multivit B-12, is recommended to combat leg muscle atrophy.

The flavor of this product is usually easily accepted by the animals you are treating.

The following blog post, from Brown Egg Blue Egg, a breeder of Silkies and Araucanas in Ohio, has a good protocol for you to follow when treating your chicken with wry neck. I will note. that the prednisone in the protocol, does require a prescription from a veterinarian and we understand your ability to find a local avian veterinarian is not always possible. We have found this protocol still has good results with the prednisone omitted.
