Can chlorine be used to sanitize drinking water for poultry?
Yes. Make a stock solution by adding 1-12 oz. of a 12-15% concentration sodium hypochloride product (such as household bleach) to 1 gallon of water. Add 1 ounce of stock solution to 1 gallon of drinking water. This will provide 3-5 ppm of chlorine. Chlorine loses its germicidal ability very quickly in the presence of organic matter, thus the water would be changed daily.
