Interestingly enough and whether intentional or non-intentional, I think you're going to find that most people follow "holistic" practices when it comes to chickens. It's other animals like dogs and humans where it's more debate worthy, harder to find, not the norm, not as common. What I mean by that is I would never take a sick chicken to a vet, therefore I don't wind up with chicken meds. And if I'm lucky enough (which I am,) to not have big issues with my chickens then over the counter meds for chicken's isn't at all part of my routine or concern. And since I buy Organic feed and I put ACV in water from time to time as well as ferment, then I guess I meet the criterion for Holistic. But I wasn't trying too.... I really do think ALOT of people meet this criteria but I'm not saying that you didn't start an interesting thread. If you want to get some adrenaline going however, put it out there on the subject of dogs
