Hi Everyone,
We like to know more about fermenting chicken feed.
So far we have been fermenting everything we give to the chickens and chicks:
Chick starter, scratched grains, egg layer pellets and cracked corn.
I especially have wondered if fermenting cracked corn is ok? As far as I know, corn is being used also to make alcohol and I wonder if this doesn't make my chickens in little alcoholics. We ferment our feed over 2 days, so the chickens will get the mixture of egg layer pellets, scratched grain, cracked corn as fermented feed. We ad a little vitamin/ mineral supplement before we feed it to them.
Any ideas? Comments?
