Amazing topic! For over a year I've been making my own kefir and the hens have always loved it poured over their breakfast treat. In the last couple months I've been making probiotic fermented vegetable mixes: like shredded garlic, cabbage, ginger, carrot, etc, mixed with celtic sea salt, pounded down til the juices rise up like kraut. It sits for 3 days at room temp, then refrigerate for a few weeks.
DH and I have been eating this stuff with each meal for a while, and wow what a huge improvement we feel in our digestion, energy, and overall health. Recently I mixed some of that fermented vegetable mix into the hens' treat. I wondered if they would eat it? Oh man, they attacked it with vigor! I couldn't believe my eyes, watching them pulling out fermented raw garlic shreds and sucking them down like spaghetti.
I'm sold on this raw probiotic stuff! It seems like the essential missing ingredient in our modern diets.
