    Guinea Hen with diarrhea and soiled vent

    Thanks for the info. I've been putting 3/4 tbs in 1 quart water in a separate plastic bowl, and their regular water bowl has probiotics and electrolytes. I started the ACV on Saturday, and was going to do it for a week based on something I read here. It is in the low 90's today, but they're...

    Guinea Hen with diarrhea and soiled vent
