I'm sure you'll have some very informed answers but for now here's my input:-

ACV -no, you shouldn't use ACV fit for human consumption as its has been refined & the chickens need the unrefined sort.
10ml per litre of drinking water given one week per month.
Its good for their respiratory system (I think).

Garlic - very good for them added to their water or feed, is good for their immune system. You can either add cloves of garlic to the water or granules to the feed.

Turmeric - don't know about this one.

Hope that helps.
