G’day mate just found your channel. I recently got 12 chooks I live in suburbia but am starting my urban farm. Just wondering mate, why on earth can you not feed your kitchen scraps to the chooks in the UK.? This seems absurd to me.

It came about after the 2001 Foot and Mouth outbreak in the UK and Europe. The EU then clamped down on it. Whether that's changed or will change now we're no longer part of the EU I don't know, but it seems that the UK had changed very little of what came about due to draconian EU rules/laws so I won't hold my breath!

Great lesson on composting. We are in the US in a rural area with free range chickens. We often put grass clippings into their pen, but they are only in there a short while in early morning as we let them out to roam around during the day. My poor husband has been trying to make compost by putting it in a pile and turning it himself. I'm going to send him the link to this so he can see how to let the chickens do a good bit of the work.

@MyFamilyGarden 3 жыл бұрын

We have a lot of foxes so the chickens are only allowed out when we're out. I do have the conventional compost pile but that's to handle the overflow, one of my jobs this year is to redesign the system to make it easier to work

I'm an avid composter with a large garden & I came across this vid a few months back & gave it a go. I'm a total convert to this method, it works a treat. I have several "open cast compostings" going on around my veg plot some I've used already with success. I use a lot of wood chippings from cuttings, cardboard, weeds, grass etc & leave it a day or so to burn off any seeds & turn it when the mood takes. I'd highly recommend your method for any size of garden.
