ACV?

[chicknmania]

Someone told me that ACV (organic apple cider vinegar) is toxic to ducks. Is this true?

 

[Kevin565]

Not to the best of my knowledge. I've given it to my waterfowl before.

nope, we use it in our waterers and in our fermented feed buckets too

 

[chicknmania]

Good, thank you!

Just thought of something. If you put ACV, or anything acidic, in a galvanized metal container, there is an increased risk of some metal dissolving into the water.

And that would be toxic.

 

[CelticOaksFarm]

yep, no metal used in, around or with vinegar

 

[chicknmania]

OK. We wont.

We also use ACV in all the birds waters (waterfowl and chicken). We do use plastic tubs though. Love the stuff!

 

[chicknmania]

yes, ours like it too and we like to give it occasionally, it's supposed to be a natural antibiotic amd/ or health tonic.

Do you thing AVC would make plastic dissolve too? I know there has been more info around lately about plastic not being good for people. I just got the metal water and feed containers. I wonder if just putting it in a ceramic or glass container would be better? Thanks for any wisdom on this.
