    FERMENTED FEEDS...anyone using them?

    Originally I took that picture just for my husband, I didn't think to post it on here until after I stirred it. The first time I have the yeast growth it was 2 patches. This morning it was a very light layer over the whole top

    FERMENTED FEEDS...anyone using them?

    I don't have a specific amount, there was maybe one and a half days worth of the last batch before I mixed in the new feed, and water. I read that because I don't do the water over the top of the feed and do equal parts that I need airflow and the first time the yeast showed up was when I...

    FERMENTED FEEDS...anyone using them?

    I just got up to feed chickens and the smell was strong, it had a thin layer of yeast over the top. I stirred it and it smells slightly sourish like vinegar. Maybe I need more airflow? The attached picture is my vessel and the hole on top is covered with cheese cloth

    FERMENTED FEEDS...anyone using them?

    Can anyone tell me whether this is yeast(scoby) or mold on my fermented feed? I haven't had this happen before, however this batch has been going a while. Yes I stir it every day, as I feed them every morning. Thank in advance!
