idnib Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 I don't have any feathered friends but I do this for my children. Am I more or less weird? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trulycrabby Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 Chicken Content! :D :D :D Lacto-fermenters are as scarce as hen's teeth here in Alabama. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nevergiveup Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 Well, good heavens....you do know those things eat bugs and mice and stuff, don't you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truscifi Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 We ferment feed for our meat chickens. We give them beer too, on top of their produce scraps and forage. It puts weight on them and they enjoy it. I figure their lives are going to be short, they should at least enjoy them as much as possible.

Good grief :D Bill Ahem, you have to sprout some of their feed, too... Then you really move into weirdo territory. Our chickens are pretty on board with the insanity though.... :laugh: Georgia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan in TN Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 I had no idea. Please don't let this become common knowledge in the chicken world or I may have a small uprising on my hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Critterfixer Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 Mine have a rotation of vegetable foods, but I don't be sprouting or fermenting anything for them! We have been known to catch grasshoppers FOR them, however... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

La Condessa Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 No lacto-fermenting here, but I do sprout whole grains and seeds for my own miniature feathered friends (quail). I'm so excited for that first egg in the next week or two, hopefully! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
