Apple cider vinegar?

[Kiki]

Acv is very good for chickens of all ages. It works great as a de-wormer!

It does NOT work as a dewormer, that is a myth.

ACV can also inhibit the bird's ability to absorb calcium.

Plain fresh water is best.

That is actually not the case. Apple cider vinegar is extremely helpful to your birds health. Look it up for yourself and see. I guess I could see if you gave half water half acv where it wouldn't be good for them. But don't take my word for it, look it up yourself!

I should note that unless treating for coccidiosis. Then the treated water should be the sole water source.

@Brooks_ Would you recommend ACV for treating coccidiosis?

That's only if it's excessive. If you do it controlled, as in no more than 1 Tablespoon per gallon of water, and raw (with the Mother in it,) it's fine.
