I've seen it in one quart containers, nothing smaller. Yep, you can give to all your hens if you wish, it wont hurt them. It's actually good for them, but it's not a "cleanser." Back in the olden days, buttermilk was one of the "cure-alls." I know one long time chicken owner that uses it often and claims that it makes feathers shiny over time.
Personally, I only use it if one of my birds has diarrhea for a few days, or after worming.
Keep in mind that during hot temps, birds drink alot of water which can cause watery diarrhea. Watermelon will cause it as well. Watery diarrhea causes a loss of nutrients. In this instance I recommend Poultry Nutri drench, one drop orally once a day for no more than 5 days.
