Sounds rather excessive to me but as you know I don’t treat for anything. The only jab that mine ever get is the PMV one.
Every time you put a needle into them you risk infection, I know this from my farming days. But if it works for you Danny who am I to disagree.

@andy so I would agree on infection but we control that risk, but the benefits out weight the cons imo mate, do you get a lull in your birds after vaccination for 3 days they off? Try using it first time when you vaccinate and see the difference! Then try using it on just 2 birds from your team Monday Tuesday 0.2ml just under the skin angle towards tail, and review the difference in those birds if you don't see a difference I'll eat my hat

I don’t notice any difference in them just after vaccination but I do it during the winter months just after weaning the youngsters from the widowhood team so that they are all jabbed at the same time, old and young. That does them for the year.
I’ll give it some thought about the b12 Danny. Is it easy to obtain and where do you get all the syringes and needles from? I’m guessing you get through a lot of needles. I know with the PMV vaccination I use the same needle on a few birds but when farming I wouldn’t use the same needle twice on any of the cattle.

Yes we go through a lot of needles, but it's cheap and easy to get mate Bayer Catosal
100 ml and well worth using the difference is huge imo and why we spend so much time and effort using it
