Benefits of ferment feed for goslings?

Same as for chickens! Here is a clip from a fermenting article:

The Benefits
  • It is easier for your chickens to digest, especially if you are feeding them pellets or crumbles. Even grains get softer after soaking.
  • Your chickens will eat less. Soaking expands the food, and chickens also digest the fermented feed more thoroughly.
  • It is harder to spill than dry food. But even if a bit is spilled, the chickens will gobble it up. Sometimes it takes them a while to get used to fermented feed, but once they do they love it!
  • Tests have shown that chickens who eat fermented feed lay more eggs and they have thicker shells. By this I mean female chickens; roosters won't lay eggs no matter how much fermented feed you give them! ;)
  • Fermenting brings out probiotics that strengthen the chickens' immune system, making them less likely to get sick.
  • It adds more nutrients! Good for gut health too!
  • The chickens have shinier feathers, look healthier, act healthier, and are healthier. Some people even claim that they poop less and that their poo is less messy and smelly when they are fed a diet of fermented feed!
  • As said before, the chickens love it!
