I have reading the posts on using ACV for mastitis. Will this work with rabbits? How much should I use? One teaspoon?Replied By Dancerdeb (Langley, Bc) on 11/06/2013
Does the ACV not sour the milk the calf is drinking?Replied By Mama To Many (Tennessee, Usa) on 11/06/2013
Dear Dancerdeb, We have used Apple Cider Vinegar in our goats' water often. They are dairy goats and we drink their milk, so we know that it has not caused it to sour.

About the question of whether the vinegar sours the milk the calf is drinking. It would sour it if it were mixed with the milk. I do not mix it with the milk. There are lots of ways to give vinegar to animals. I give it to calves or cows by pouring it over sweet feed or hay. To do this, you really need to be feeding in a hard plastic container. Vinegar will rust metal or soak into wood. It won't hurt the wood, but it will waste the vinegar. You can also put the vinegar in their drinking water, provided the water container isn't metal. It is very easy to get cows, donkeys, etc., to drink vinegar. They love it, and it's good for them.
