I keep remembering different things I need to check in my home before birdies come here tomorrow!
We tested our well water a few weeks ago and its healthy, except for slightly elevated sodium levels (44.1 mg/L) according to the guide we were given from public health, for humans with heart problems that need a sodium restricted diet you should speak to your doc before drinking water with more than 20 mg/L, but otherwise is safe and can’t even be detected as a salty taste until at 200mg/L.
otherwise we have high calcium in our water which is great (105mg/L)! And also a bit of magnesium.
our water is very hard but there’s no detectable flavour to it. Do you think this water is safe to give to my birds or should I get some bottled water until we can get some kind of filter for it?
thanks!
