I found this article on fermenting feed which was helpful. I fermented it for 24 hours then mixed it with some vegetables, blueberries, and a little molasses.
The chicks ate more of that than they did when it was merely wet. I'll keep giving it to them as a supplement to their regular grains...
Good idea. I'm soaking some right now to use in their wet treat in place of the oats. I'll see if they eat that.
Edit: most of them ate it, less than enthusiastically but they ate it.
Chicks are 5 & 8 weeks. They've been eating an organic mash, plus the occasional wet treat which is oats, collard greens, blueberries, and molasses mixed together, and some dandelions and seedy grass from the yard. They love all of this. All are healthy and growing fast. They've never refused...
