Creating Your Own Fodder System

Great info

Many of us have larger flocks that need a large scale fodder system. I have sprouted in jars but when I gave it to the birds, it was devoured in a few seconds and 90% didn't even get any. This larger scale system may work for me if I can get about 20-30 of these Tupperware pans to do a couple of 5 gal buckets worth of fodder a day.
When I tried to do it in the 5 gal buckets, it wound up getting sorta funky no matter how much it was drained. Not enough fresh air I guess. Maybe this will work better. Any advise is certainly welcome.

Very nice article with lots of details. I'm also in the PNW so I especially appreciate the updates as to which seeds sprout successfully without any additional babying. I'm thinking of doing this in my greenhouse... Thanks for the inspiration!

Great pictures and informative too!
But I have to say that’s a lot of work ...

Considering we can sprout in a mason jar or any tray for more birds , I hope you have a lot of chickens and time

An interesting read and well put together article , congratulations

Fodder is a great way to feed your livestock during the winter. I recommend everyone try at least once. It is soooooo simple.

Well written and lots of photos...a nice way to provide fresh fodder for the birds.

I enjoyed reading your informative article on seed sprouting. It was well written and the pictures were helpful also. Thank you for taking the time to educate.

Nice way to get greens for the flock

Have lovec reading through this! Very neat system.

Great step by step instructions.
Having updates was terrific, as we're able to see if the setup was a success or failure. Also knowing which seeds grew better saves time and money.
