Thank you for the update! When I read that I wondered if I was missing something and wanted to look into it more... then forgot. Lol. Thanks for explaining it to me. Yeah, there's not much the chickens get more excited about then leftover rice and blackbeans. Maybe because theose both look like...
For about a year now I've been keeping a little pail beside the kitchen sink. EVERY scrap of people food goes in there during the day and gets fed to the chickens in the morning. We have 2 small kids and you'd be shocked at how quickly those tiny scraps add up to a lot of "free" feed each day...
