3 bags of pea gravel to level, 6 bags of topsoil on top of that, and then some pine shavings for the babies to spread around ( and oh boy did they) and then some paper firom shredding on top of that. They got in the run today and spread it out better than I ever could have! It was lovely. Then they all went back in the coop BY THEMSELVES (first day go figure) and I locked it up!!!
I figure I can always add more topsoil or pea gravel; the topsoil is nice and soft and the chicks are kicking around in it....
Fermented food is SO easy...chick feed, water to cover, stir twice a day, wait 2-3 days, feed, add more feed and water as you go...smells like bread/beer...they LOVE it
Sprouts are from (unbelievably) regular birdseed, I will use up that bag...
Microgreens can be anything seed: red wheat, alfalfa, grass... they totally EAT IT UP!
Thanks so much for the wonderful comments!!!! Very kind!
