Sick 6-7 week old chicks. Please help

Acv certainly has it's benefits, but it's not recommended during times of high heat. It also makes calcium a little harder to digest in your laying hens. And remember not to add to metal water dishes.

Farmer Viola & LeoneB: please take Farmer Viola's advise.
I heard to give chickens ACV & garlic, but I don't recall how much was recommended. So now I know. Thank you Farmer Viola!

no problem!

always remember, when you offer special waters such as ACV water, or electrolyte, or probiotic, to also provide regular plain water too.

Yes I use Bragg's with the mother

perfect

Wow! It has been a while since I have logged on here, and I am happy to see that all of your advice has been helpful to me as well as the other people posting on here. All of my sick birds are healthy now, except one of the buff silkies, he is alive but blind from the infection he had in his eyes. He is kept separate from my big flock and I have a girl friend in with him (their names are Beatrix and Potter) She shows him where the water and food is, and where to roost at night, and they are getting along just fine
