Apple Cider Vinegar and garlic questions

[Michael Propst]

I have ACV in their water from the day 1. I actually use 2 tbls per gallon. In the evening I give the girls a small amount of sprouted grains and I will crush some fresh garlic and mix it into the sprouts. I have never noticed any taste issues with the eggs by feeding garlic.

I use either garlic or ACV about 5 days a week, then give their system a couple days off (not that I think it does any damage, just don't want them working up an immunity to either one). I use mainly just garlic in really hot weather (one crushed clove in a 2 gallon waterer) because somewhere I read ACV increases their internal body temperature. I'm not sure if that is true, its just what I read. When I use ACV, I use 1 tablespoon per gallon. I have never had a problem with any eggs tasting like garlic.

Depending on how many chickens you have I have 8 pullets and mince 2-4 cloves

How often do you give it to them and what age is a pullet (I’m completely new to this sorry).

Awesome!! Thank you everyone. I think that painted a clearer picture for me as far as frequency goes. I appreciate the help!
