The hummingbirds get sick from fungus on the feeders. When the nectar doesn’t get changed regularly, especially in the hot weather fungus
begins to grow. When you keep your feeder clean and change the nectar regularly there shouldn’t be a problem. Rusty From: MaryAnn Helland [mailto:marmar...@bellsouth.net] Sent: May 23, 2017 8:49 AM To: Silver-List Subject: CS>Hummingbirds I've been reading a lot recently about sick Hummingbirds -- mostly from drinking foul water from feeders. So I've been wondering if it would help -- or not -- to put a teaspoon of CS in the feeder. ??? Or more? Or less? Or offer a separate feeder of CS? Any thoughts? MA
