    Fermenting Feed for Meat Birds

    I just read an article (posted on one of these threads) that said ff increased the absorption of nutrients by 12 percent. Which is great and probably accounts for why they are satisfied on smaller amounts of feed! It's all good

    Cruel disposal of unwanted chicks?

    Cruel disposal of unwanted chicks?

    I have 9 white leghorn roos that I planned to process this week (18 weeks old). Should I not waste my time? Surely they would make a pot of soup or something???? I knew when I realized they were roos that I didn't want them, but figured they would be good for something????
