Hi - got a few questions about using fermented feed:
1. I've head of people fermenting regular chick starter - has anyone here tried this, did the chicks like it?
2. Should they be a certain age before trying it?
3. Do you need to add grit? (Since it's made from the starter, I wouldn't think so)
4. Speaking of grit - we're very far from a store, can I use beach sand (from a lake)? Should I wash it first? What's the best way to do that?
Thanks!
