Is this ok?

[MontanaDolphin]

I have read a bunch of posts about the benefits of adding apple cider vinegar to the water for chickens, but I have a few questions before I do it, just to make sure I don't do anything wrong.

First, I saw a lot of posts saying it should be organic, but the store didn't have organic, so I bought this. Is this ok to use?



Next question, is the ratio 1 TBSP per gallon correct?

Are my 4 day old chicks to young to add the vinegar to their water?

Do I give them the vinegar water every day, and if not, how often?

Thank you!!

that brand looks ok, I usually get Braggs. I have been giving my chicks from day one ACV.

I mix 3 Tablespoons into a gallon jug of water and use that..They are 9 months old and still get it daily in their water. Never had pasty butt, and no illnesses, but I can't say it's because of the ACV.

Thank you so much for this post. I had not heard this before, so it is great information for me. I love learning new tips for healthy chicks.

I have done this with my dogs before to help with a healthy digestive system, but I didn't even think about it with the chickens.

I add ACV to my water also.
I give it to my chickens, dogs, cats, and sheep.
I buy the Braggs online at Amazon.com since my local stores do not sell it.
