But this thing is not the reason that I am writhing here, I discovered that Fenugreek have a very nice side effect. the people that use fenugreek on a daily basis now that this spice have effect on a persons BO. And that odor repel mosquitos( Garlic have the same effect!) I have a friend that have some horses, and in the summer he had to deal with a lot of fly biting problems.(maggots, open wounds infection etc.) he decided to add Fenugreek to the horses diet. Since than the fly problems reduced to zero problems! This is a win win situation! The horses benefits from the nutritional properties of the Fenugreek from one side, and don't suffer flays problems from the other side.
I think that this affect can be the same in chickens! So if you are suffering from fly and mosquito problems in your floc, this could be a good solution!
