As I posted there, once a month I put avia charge in their water for a week. It's more preventative than needed in my opinion - I have never had a health issue with my inside birds. Once a month for a week they also get ACV in the water.


ACV - apple cider vinegar Just a natural health supplement. Avia Charge was recommended to me about 3 years ago by several people on BYC. I use it on my outdoor flock of layers and for my Seramas. It is expensive but lasts a long time. All of my indoor birds also have lots of natural light through windows and lights on all their cages.

All I can say is: "have fun

playing with your mealworms..

"

As time goes on I am getting more used to them, but NO WAY will I touch em!

Thank you Bobby and Froggie for mealworm info.

I'm jealous! My outside flock (about 40 hens) is giving me 4 eggs a day for 2 months now. They are all molting and/or revolting against the coming winter

The Seramas are doing ok, I'm keeping up on orders and finally able to start hatching again for myself

I use the apple cider vinegar for the chicks for pasty butt. Since that and the sav a chick my fatality rate in chicks are slim to almost none
