I do, and they gobble it like its fresh fish! And yes i think is great for them! I ferment it 2 days and feed out. Its been a huge plus. One of my cats came here nearly bald and anemic from fleas. You wouldn't believe how good she looks now, and has a lil pudgy belly . I only have outdoor barn...
I don't really know for sure ..I read every scrap and post I see that relates to FF. Not just here, but mother earth news, anything i find on state ag websites...There's more argument to do it than the small amount that's not. but i do know they all look and act a lot healthier. I am spending a...
Greens like spinach, collards, mustard are high vit A, cabbage is said to have calcium. Peanuts, cooked unsalted are a good protein too. My birds love shredded carrots, wont touch the whole ones. Garlic is a natural wormer, same for pumpkin. Mealworms are excellent protein too. Tomatoes vit C...
Do you just mean in grains, or other foods too, like greens, insects? Boss is probably one of the best grains, and I can't help but think peas are beneficial also.
Hi! try leaving the alfalfa out. work your way backwards. The FF smell to me is wonderful, and makes my taste buds really happy for sunny-side up Sundays Maybe ferment a shorter time, change feed brands... there a ton of things you can try. any recent changes in the last few weeks? it may seem...
I have a 75 gallon tank with 2 Oscars, and a pleco. I bought some from an eBay dealer, but its a common thing in ponds here too i found out later.. I try to feed it at a cup i my ff 1X a week. Very high proteins and my waterfowl get very excited over it. Its an extremely high protein additive.
Ok, going to add 1/2 cup mealies to the FF for my birds. Thoughts, good, bad...am i crazy? (umm never mind don't answer that hehe)
My indoor duckweed farm is slowing way down, must be because the house is cooler.
Our first snow hits tomorrow, and sharp temp drop tomorrow night. Got extra bedding...
What feed are you using, or grain? I found that if mine is consistency like heavy thick pudding.. drywall mortar, it does well. you have to let it sit, stir one or 2 times a day. ferment a few days to get it started. If its a warmer room, it does better. tell me your steps, how you are mixing...
So far we aren't freezing up, but next week will get us. I found cookie tins, and will be getting my heater bases made this weekend.
I am retired so i am going to feed 2x a day during the winter, morning and evening.
I was using a strainer at first, i let it drain 15-20 minutes and it was pretty...
HI MC well said and so glad to see you! Really think its helped my lil pug Sadie. Her skin gets so itchy in winter. nothing has helped, even changing foods. So far, she is ok this winter. The FF, i only use 1 bucket per feed/animal type for a day.... the holes and 2nd bucket just didn't work...
i use a table saw. It does a very clean cut, and won't track off. I have seen DH use a cable saw (by hand) but i am not that patient. It cuts pretty easy, especially if its a power driven tool.
