Question about feeding whole grains to meat chicks.
I have a mixture of oats, wheat, barley and alfalfa seed. I have been feeding it to my hogs and plan on getting more Cx soon, since my freezer is getting low on chicken! The last batch, I was getting feed from a mill, so it was a meat bird feed, all ground up.
I was thinking I would soak it, and I was thinking I would need to get a mineral supplement for them? If I can figure out an easy way to sprout some of it, I will do that as well. Just curious if anyone has done the whole grain thing with them with good success?
Thanks!
