    Fermented Feeds

    Mine sits out back near the chickens and they come running when they hear the lid pop, its smells gross to me but they love it, and they dive right in, I use a 5 gallon bucket and a wire scoop on a handle,( I guess like you would use in a deep fryer) and drain it and dump in in the pans. I use...
