I had mentioned to my boyfriend now that we are living out in the rural area we should get some chicken laying eggs someday.... SOMEDAY. About a week later he walked out of tractor supply and put a box of four 3 day old chickens on my lap. I said "what in the heck am I going to do with these, I know nothing about them!?" Marched him right back in to buy all of the necessities. I almost re-homed them a few times because I doubted myself. It's now 5 weeks later and I can't even tell you how in love I am! He just made them the most amazing big girl house yesterday with runs and ladders etc. I sat out there for hours like an excited nervous mother waiting for them to use their new ladder bc I didn't want to miss it! They are four black ones with a couple lighter spots on them that I cannot identify for the life of me!? Three are quite large and one is the runtish and I just adore her she's my sweet girl. We seem to bond over a few pasty butts removal sessions. Lol Love your channel subscribing now! You're the best. 😁🐓🐔🐥💗

Will be much fun to teach but also i worried alot.Im planning to free the bird later when it become adult

Henlo, friends! I forgot to mention that if your ferment smells alcoholic in any way, obviously don't use it. Sometimes homemade feed contains brewers yeast and that will turn to alcohol if you ferment it. Just thought I would mention that! Also, DO NOT ferment medicated starter. Only ferment NON-MEDICATED feed. :-)

any standard yeast can produce alcohol.. that is if the yeast cannot breathe oxygen.. and you mention well water.. well... no no :) tap water in a small jar like that is fine, the amount of yeast will be a lot more by volume, i blend all sorts of veggie scraps, meat scraps, bones, grains.. boil them in a big pot, let cool to 30-40c celcius, then ferment and close the lid (not airtight) i find all minerals and nutrients steep and mix as well and chickens are less picky eating some stuff they normally dislike.. mines dont like cabbage for instance, but in a ferment mix.. they gobble it down..

Love this thanks! I've been fermenting my feed the past few months that I've had chickens and haven't been able to find much information about it till now. I just dumped a big scoop of organic feed pellets into a big bucket, filled with water, added a bit of my kimchi/sauerkraut/ferment juice as starter, left it outside with lid with holes, and it turned out great! Smells sweet and bubbles when it's ready. The chickies love it! I just keep adding to that bucket to keep it going. A general fermenting tip - sometimes white stuff will form on top which is a type of yeast, it's not harmful, just skim it away.

I've had pretty good sucess with fermented feed (pellet form) the only time they didn't like it was when I let it ferment too long (5 or more days). If I let it go too long I think it gets too sour for their liking. I drain mine through cheese cloth laid in a strainer once the liquid stops draining I gather the edges of the cloth together and twist the ball of ferment to further drain the liquid. Once I get it to the consistency of moist sand I put it in mason jars and refrigerate what I don't use to slow spoilage. I can't say how long it could last in the fridge as it is usually gone within a few days I've never stored it more than a week. I was told by the farmer that showed me the process not to freeze the ferment as they thought it changed the texture or taste because their chickens wouldn't eat much of the frozen stuff even after it thawed to room temp. Sometimes I collect some of the drained liquid and add it to the next batch to speed up the next ferment.

He lets the chickens scratch for sprouts, seeds worms, bugs, and keeps churning the pile until part spent, then adds more weeds, etc to the pile with grains until it is nearly ready to use as compost, then he uses part of the old pile as a starter for a new one. Cost is very low. He says he spends less than a hundred dollars per year for what looks like about 30 chickens.

You made me today happy to be a chicken lover, I am blessed different than you as living in Queensland Australia, we have no real winter to speak of, 52F, we don't have to take our chickens to bed. Ha Ha Thank you.

Last fall I was cleaning up an area that had a lot of aster in it. I have 2-3 chickens that like to work where ever I am and I notice they really loved the seeds that were falling and they would jump up to eat the seeds from the plants. I made up bundles and hung in the chicken coop to dry and would drop a bundle down about every week. they loved it, gave them something to do on the really bad snow/ice days.

Also i heard if a batch starts to smell, meaning possible bad bacteria has been building up, you can use raw apple cedar vinegar to kill all the bad strands and get it back to normal.

This was very interesting to watch. It is the third of your videos that I have watched this evening. My sister has a flock of baby chickens, you see, and she sent me some pictures of them. She then mentioned that she is going to grow sprouts and ferment feed. I thought I need to learn more about this. I really like the way you present in this video. You show all the essential steps and each key step in the process is shown with a "thumbs up". All the steps are simple. You also show feeding the fermented product to the flock. Thank you for a truly excellent video. I understand the goals of providing fermented feed better now.

I recently moved to the PNW and just bought my first flock of little chicks. They’ve already brought joy into our lives. They are so silly and cute. So naturally I’ve been binge watching videos on feed for chickens into the am. Trying to absorb as much as possible so we can have healthy and happy chickens.

I have 11 assorted hens and a very sweet rooster. They are "spoiled rotten" and super healthy, because I did my research and learned about fermenting grains. (I was raised on a ranch, but our chicken flock was large and they were not pets at all. My folks 'soaked' grain -mostly oats- 24 hrs for the chickens but never longer, so didn't reap the nutrient boost and digestive benefits of fermentation. I didn't care for "chicken chores" as a kid, but I love my little flock now.)

I’ve tried fermenting their grain and seed mix a couple times and they did not like it. I was so bummed because I sprout and ferment a lot. They don’t care for sprouts and micro greens either. But, I made them an herb garden with wheatgrass and they love it! I plant a tray indoors and let it grow for a 2-3 weeks and let them go to town. I have three trays in rotation. Their fave herbs are lemon balm and peppermint. I also feed them rosemary and thyme.

Not really, it just means it’s not interesting to them or not what they were looking for and more important, they don’t want YT to use their algorithms to put more of the same in their feeds.
