Very nice vid. I got one from Amazon this week but it is not a Victoria. I bought mine for the same reason that you did. My chickens won't eat the whole dried kernel corn. I see that you have the Red Comet chickens like I do too.

The chickens give it 10 feathers up, lol!! Been watching your past videos, going to borrow several of your ideas (and no I'm not returning them, lol!) for projects around the house. Thanks, take care & be safe.

Whats the benefit in grinding your own?
@renaissancemarinetv35368 жыл бұрын
+The Wannabe Homesteader great question and I should have said in the vid, sorry. I did a little googling and it turns out the reason they crack the corn is to get out the germ. the germ is where all the goodies (a technical term) are and is where corn syrup comes from. so in effect they are selling the same kernel of corn twice. only the last part is empty. no goodies. if you crack your own whole corn all the nutrients and flavor and stuff are still there. turns out the same thing happens with storebought corn mill and grits. unless you get it specifically made from whole corn, all the goodies are gone.

Wow, did not know that...so they are selling the scrap corn as feed from another process.

I am not saying its a conspiracy to keep me from having the best crackling bread. but that is what is happening. you know yourself how much better fresh eggs than those things they sell in the supermarket. its the same with whole corn meal.

You have been misinformed. Cracked corn contains all the same nutrients as your home milled corn. They just did the work for you. Brewer's grain, on the other hand, has been through a commercial process that does remove the starch in the kernel to make ethanol or other corn products. Most of the time brewer's grain is a wet product but it can sometimes be dried as well. However, by far the largest majority of cracked corn that you will find in farm supply stores is exactly the same as you are making in this video. When you get tired of cranking that mill, go back to buying the cracked corn! :)

hmmm, well that isnt what i was told. of course i cant remember who now but i called some corn people when i was trying to find out about making my own grits and whether or not i could use feed corn (i was told to use "people" corn or popcorn instead). but i want to get my facts right.
