Apple Cider Vinager ??

[josh]

Which brand should I buy? How much should I add to a 55 gal barrel. I am going out of town and need to fix them a water system because I have nobody to water them for me Thanks.

Will it hurt goats?

ACV is great for people and animals-use organic acv. Bragg's is a popular one. I use 1 tablespoon per gallon.

USE 2 TBSP PER GALLON AND IT WILL KEEP AS THE APPLE CIDER VINEGAR WILL KEEP THE WATER FROM GETTING THE GREENS

AND JUST MAKE SURE THE BRAND YOU BUY DOES SAY
apple cider vinegar IT WILL BE OKAY
ANY QUESTIONS

Glenda, it needs to say Organic, doesn't it and you're right about the 2 tbsps. I do use that amt, sorry Josh!

I get my ACV from Trader Joes or Whole Foods. It says UNFILTERED, PASTUERIZED, ORGANIC APPLE CIDER VINEGAR. I use 1-2 tablespoons per gallon of water.

The ACV should say Mother on the bottle as well. Braggs or Fleishmann are the brands I have seen at the store.

Our store brand (HEB, in Texas) of apple cider vinegar has made a "mother"...a gel like substance.
I'm guessing it's organic enough?

In any case, we've been using it for our chicks ( 1 tbs per gallon),and it seems to be ok...they have not had ANY issues at all, in these 2 months. Sprightly and vigorous, all 4 of them...(They were 2 days old when we got them).

Definately get the acv with mother in it. It will look cloudy and have 'stuff' floating in it. It's good for ppl too. Just down a tablespoon.
