I know why they get sick -- and I know to keep the feeders clean, etc. But
some people do not -- and I thought maybe to help those birds that got sick
elsewhere. And to keep my own even cleaner.
There's probably no problem finding bird people who know about Hummingbirds --
but how many of them know about CS?
Guess I'll just let it go. Thanks to all who responded.MA

div.yiv0861252259WordSection1 {}#yiv0861252259 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

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
