What size bags are required to buy from Big Sky? I just may consider it when my girls are ready for layer feed. I use a single bucket for my ff. Since I have a small flock and they are still chicks (14 wks) my bucket is 6 qts and it swells to about 3/4 full with a refreshed batch. That lasts me 4-5 days and I start out with a pretty dry mixture. Toward the end I have a good scoby fermented water to start the next batch. I refresh either in the morning or eve after feeding and the new mixture is fully fermented and ready to feed out in 12 hrs for the next feeding. They get a full ration first thing in the morning, then a small snack of about 1/4 their ration in the eve when they are out to free range. I have had the same bucket since I got my girls at 2 weeks.
Here are some new pics of my girls and our run expansion.
What is left of my spaghetti squash crop after the freeze a couple weeks ago.
My 4 hoodlums trying to figure out how to get to the other side of the fence for succulent lettuce and beets!
The expanded run is the raw pine and cedar portion.
Fuzzy Butts!
My flock getting plenty of grit from an unused overturned garden area!
Best friends just hanging out!
