Question about Waterers - leaving one plain - does ACV count?

[aatx]

I often see it mentioned when talking about brooders to have two sources of water if you are giving them anything like vitamins, probiotics, etc, that are optional. (And vice versa if you are giving them something they must have, like antibiotics, corrid, etc., to have all sources of water contain it.) But one thing that just occurred to me today, is that I didn't know if that applied to ACV. It seems like those who use ACV speak like they put it in all the water and I have not seen mention of offering a plain water alternative.

So, if you add ACV to your water, do you put it in all water sources or do you make sure they have a second option that is plain?

I don't give mine an option--

I put it in all their water bowls. But studies have shown that chickens actually like the taste of ACV more!

I always use ACV at 1 tablespoon per gallon of water.

YOu can make your own vineger too! I've tried and not done very well but others report good results. Worth a try!!
