ACV is Apple Cider Vinegar. A lot of us add it to their water as a health and immunity booster.

That's a fabulous question...

Already answered that it apple cider vinegar. It's one of those things that is SUPPOSED to be a miracle cure. I bought it and don't use it. But it is supposed to (and does) have live probiotics in it to support the healthy function inside the digestive tract which in turn supports the immune system by having better gut bacteria balance. Doing it on occasion is ok. NOTHING should be supplemented more than 10 days.

Electrolytes on the other hand are things like sodium and potassium. If off balance too far they are deadly. I only supplement electrolytes in a bird that has been off water for a while, fresh shipped chicks, or long term diarrhea, or maybe in shock from an injury or attack... as dehydration can be deadly fast. I might give them short term, otherwise fresh plain water is best.
