My uncle in Boise swore by adding apple cider vinegar to the water for years
He said it kept his flock healthy and I finally tried it last spring with my six hens. After about two weeks, I noticed their feathers looked way shinier and their energy was up. Anyone else use this trick and see a difference, or is it just a coincidence?

Works for my birds too.

Honestly, the shinier feathers and extra energy could just be from the change in weather last spring. I tried apple cider vinegar with my birds a while back and didn't see any real proof it did anything. Tbh, I'm pretty careful about adding stuff to their water without a clear reason from my vet. It just seems like one of those old tips that gets passed around more than it gets proven.

Most old home remedies work just well enough to keep people passing them down forever.
