You know, I'm definitely not an expert, but I wouldn't think that it would hurt. They are completely different substances, and not like you would get a reaction like you would with ACV and baking soda. You could always do two different feeders- one with baking soda the other with the electrolytes. I have heard that you shouldn't use electrolytes for longer than a week at a time due to the high sodium. Let me do some research and I'll get back to you. My direct email is [email protected]
Let me see what I can come up with!
Thanks!
Thanks. I think I'd rather be safe than sorry. They need the electrolytes when it's 110-120 degrees on daily basis. I have never heard that they can only be on it for a week. I give them a pretty low dose formulated for chickens with probiotics and vitamins added. I give it to them for 6 hours a day and plain water the rest of the day. So I think that their fine. Their egg shells are looking better so I don't think I'll do the baking soda. But it's good to know for the future.
