Prevention of COCCIDIOSIS and other poultry diseases in chicks~ ACV.

It's here, LG...it's here. The very fact that this link has been up for almost a year now and this is the first comment I've had on it in a negative fashion speaks volumes and shows that progression towards suppression. I have had a few contact me via PM to thank me for posting it and to say they will pass it along, but this is the first "I'm offended" comment I've received. I'd venture to say that it's not out there causing any great harm to tender sensibilities and I have to weigh the discomfort of one against the need of many...and the film alone speaks of the great need for education on the subject.

That's an obvious choice, isn't it? And you'd think many would just use common sense and do so....I have a few on the ignore list and I don't even have to SEE their posts. It's all in what one wants to do with their time and effort in this world and some choose to use it in this manner. That's the freedom we enjoy in America. I've even invited the option to report to the mods if he would like.

I'm hoping my replies here will satisfy his curiosity as to my motives and this will then be done.
 
I started putting some bragg's in my chicks water, about 1 tsp for their quart of water does that sound right? I didn't get medicated feed and I figured it was a good way to prevent sickness. Also, I have some raw honey, I considered adding a tsp of it also, thoughts?

Sounds good! You might also give the chicks a clump of sod with grass intact, from where they will eventually be living, so they have early exposure to the culture and coccidia and can form antibodies against it. It also gives them something to peck out, some grit, and even their first introduction to grass if you have any out there.

I plan to pretty soon, they are only about one week right now, we just got them sunday. I do have free range ladies out there so is there a certian age I should hold off for or does it matter? I haven't had chicks for 4 years so I don't remember everything I researched the first time.
 
I also make homemade kombucha, would that be better, worse or about the same to add? could I do both? I have read the scoby is good to give chickens but I have no idea about chicks... I may search for a kombucha thread if there is one. (sorry to be so random I just got started back here.)

I've never tried it but others have and they will just add it to the chick starter to make a mash sometimes. I don't think it would hurt to add to the water either. Certainly can't hurt!

You might be interested in fermented feed..it's free and easy to do.....a lot of us using it now and especially for our chicks. Here's a link for any questions. https://tikktok.wordpress.com/2014/04/13/fermented-feed-faq/
