It was mentioned in the homing world at one time as a treatment for young bird sickness

[mO]

elderberry plus "ground cinnamon" is a good preventative of y/bird sickness.

cheap too.

Pick ya own elderrberry's, just the berrys, rest is poision.

Put in a large container.

Boil some water and scold the berries. Mash them all to bits.

Strain with a flour/ strainer??

botlle just the juice.

Add ground cinnamon to the bottle and put the lot in a fridge to keep fresh.

One more quick tip. you could make elderrberry ice cubes and just pop in into drinkers daily as you replace the water.

If nothing else I imagine its a good source of free Vitamin C for the birds.

I use it from when I first wean the y/birds.

 

 

"none dead"  yet  lol.

Hope the above helps.
