Liquid kelp?

[SamFoy]

Can liquid kelp go bad? I bought some a few years ago, used it a few times and put it up. I'm thinking of doing a regiment of liquid kelp, liquid calcium, and apple cider vinegar in some kind of order?

Need help guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry, I have never used the liquid kelp. Did you store it in the refrigerator? How long are you talking about" I would imagine like most products of that nature is that it would loose some of it's potency and vitamins would break down after a while. Depends on the heat and how long.

I think it floated around my cabinet indoors and out the frig for 3 years or so. Thanks for any help.

[CandoAviary]

Yea, I would probably through it out. Buy some fresh or powdered kelp

[SamFoy]

Ok, thanks

Hi Lu - I'd love to know what kind of birds you have. And you give liquid kelp everyday? Is that the same thing as liquid Iodine? And ACV as well? I only give liquid Iodine once a week to my Australian finches. Do introduce yourself over in the Introductions forum and give us the lowdown on your fids, diets and setup. The curious would love to know.

Hi, Liquid kelp is basically the same as liquid iodine, yes I do add it to their water along with acv. It is given to help eliminate bad bacteria in their water. The acv (braggs organic) has many nutrients in it.here is a good read on acv google "a guide to a naturally healthy bird" by Alicia McWaters
1 tablespoon of acv to 1 gallon of water, 4 drops of liquid kelp to 1 gallon of water
I also have been giving acv to my racing pigeons through out the breeding season for many years.

Good to know, Lu - thanks!

I;ve only used ACV in the water to soak my soakseed (for 24 hours). Then I rinse the soakseed really well and mix it with my eggfood. Finches love it everyday.
