    So when it is hot you forgo the BOSS? Why is this? We live in the central valley of CA and it is getting hot here too.

    I did it, and they are eating the FF, as a treat I gave them a had full of meal worms and the roo about punched a hole in my hand from/for the joy of the treat! How much BOSS should be in the FF mix, and when would be a good age to start giving them that? Thanks again

    I am guessing on the cup but it is a couple of hand full single layer deep. I have average size meat hooks. The FF is like a grout consistency. I have also left the dry feeder out for them, I just can not bring myself to starve them, and they are not making a mess of the dry like before the...

    They have now turned their beaks up at the FF. Since the post with the pics they have steadily stopped eating it, should I start over or wait till I put them on a bag of Layena at about 18 weeks, 9 weeks from now? they are eating a start & grow now and I give them grass and about a cup of dried...

    Not sure I have that option of not having water on top, too dry in the summer (central valley CA). Someone on here said they muck it out the night before and drain off the water in the morning I might go that route. So as long as you have a good amount of "left over" at the bottom of the...

    Ok, this is what I was greeted with this morning has an off smell too. I used a pickle jar and have been "fighting" a pickle smell but not today. Not really sure how to describe the smell, sniffing razor blades. I am thinking it is bad but wanted to check with others. No I did not feed it to the...

    I measured todays FF and it was 1 1/2 cups, they have been grazing on it all day and because I don't want them to go without food I also leave the dry food feeder in for them they eat 8 oz of that a day too along with the 1 1/2cup FF. Until yesterday that is and they ate half of the FF and 16oz...

    How long does it usually take to start slacking off? At just shy of 7 weeks old it has been 1 week on FF. I am using a gallon glass jar filled have way up. I am taking out about 1 1/2 cups daily and adding that back daily with about half a cup of water. Can you over ferment the feed? if not then...

    Well, today was a flop. The girls only ate 1/2 of the FF? I have been adding to the jar as I take out, but I did have to add a lot of new water. As I get the water from the fridge I also warm it up in the microwave, no warmer then 90. It did have a "good" smell but not real strong like it has...

    4 days into FF and this morning when I let them out, after filling up the dry food, water and the FF. They flew out of the coop and bypassed the dry food and water, which they have never done, and went for the FF first. I think they like! Thanks to everyone who has contributed to the making of...
