I would be concerned about the concentrate of Borax. But the proof is in the doing. I'm almost out of commercial detergent. Haven't bought any in 3 years, I think. So... it's ALMOST time to make some!
I've been reading on the internet that Borax isn't any more dangerous than Baking Powder. It also warned that we should not confuse Borax Acid with just plain Borax when determining toxicity. The chicks have been around it for a couple of years, but never the less, I will keep a more critical eye on them to make sure I'm not slowly undermining their health. Right now, they are molting and some of them look like death warmed over!
