    Developing My Own Breed Of Large Gamefowl For Free Range Survival (Junglefowl x Liege)

    Best of luck with your break from making content. I have a channel where I just document the chickens, no talking and it takes up time to film, edit, upload etc. and then when you get fans, they have a million questions.

    The videos probably inspired people to do something similar. I saw some sponsored post on Facebook for the “Jack-o-raptor” which seemed like another Terrorfowl.

    That’s good to know. Teff is new to me. Tiny super grain high in lysine from Ethiopia. Sounds great for Texas chicks. I guess with the right permits I could grow hemp seed as well.

    I have a friend that makes flour from acorns. He says burr oak works well because it’s big and easy to collect. We have a park close by that has loads of burrs, reds, live oaks and chinkapins.

    Corn and amaranth will grow well here. Sorghum, millet, barley, and winter oats are commonly grown here.

    I was brainstorming with a friend the other day about alternative feeds that I could source locally and free. I collect a lot of pecans and feed them to the flock. He said what about acorns? There are unlimited amounts of them here in the fall I could collect. I haven't tried to feed them yet. I...
