Can ducks have acidified copper sulfate?

[Jenbirdee]

Is it ok for ducks if it’s in the waterers that they share with chickens?
I bought some acidified copper sulfate just so I have it in case I need it for my chickens, but they do share water with the ducks. I just don’t know if I ever have to use it would I have to separate the chickens from the ducks while it’s in the chickens water?

Wow, yeah ,thank you . ever since I got chickens and they started having issues and I started buying various new to me kinds of medicines for them i see ads for all kinds of other supplements and cures going on so I just thought I’d stock up on other stuff too I am amazed how many illnesses diseases, pests, and problems chickens can have. I went through seven years with my ducks without hardly any of that. It looks like I can use the copper sulfate as a fertilizer for my garden or some thing maybe a fungicide I don’t know. I guess it could turn out to be useful somehow. Oh well I’ll just keep it.
