Nope, Tesco/Morrisons/Asda etc etc all have it - same stuff for everyone, just read up on dilutions for chooks

Make sure the cider vinegar is unpasturised as it has far better medicinal properties. Its supposed to be good for numerous things includung joint problems in humans, i drink my cider vinegar that i buy for the animlals from our local countrystore.

Hi Langdon.

You need the type they sell for livestock...horses and sheep. It's rougher than the supermarket stuff and a lot cheaper.

going off topic have just looked at your website castlefarm, only read the title page, sorry you've lost a good bird. Your opinions on breeding look worth studying so i've earmarked your site for further reading at a quieter moment.
