Here is another one http://www.themodernhomestead.us/article/Poultry.html.
If you are allergic to wheat, barley and rye, you can look into the supergrains amaranth and quinoa - actually seeds of a spinach relative - and lesser known grains like teff. I've grown amaranth in the past. It is foolproof and very prodcutive. If not careful it will resow itself year after year. It is also very versitle. Both the leaves and seeds can be eaten. Native Seeds/SEARCH sells several types of amaranth, corn, chia and other grains from the Southwest http://www.nativeseeds.org/. The packages are $3 each but the amounts included are very generous. Recently, I have included chia seeds - a salvia; related to mint - in their mix. It is very nutritious but expensive. They really seed to enjoy it, though. This year I will grow some of my own.
