Hi Bee, So nice to see you on here still busily educating all these "newbies" to FF. We couldn't do without you! I saw the comment about your new and improved trough, so went back weeks to find the foto of it. The one I built years ago as per your instructions is still serving me well. Only I...

Hi Bee, So nice to see you on here when I can say hello. Every time there were horrible storms in your area this winter I worried about you and wondered how you were doing. I don't get on here too much because when I do the day gets away from me and I get nothing done. I don't know how others...

Linda, I bought a 50# bag of steamed oats to add to my ff. The stuff is at least 50% outer shells of the oats and the chickens don't eat it but pick out the good stuff. Is there any nutritional value in the hulls or are they pure cellulose? I will grind the stuff up before adding it to the...
