brewers yeast

[katie_]

my pekins are 3 weeks old and have been on 1 cup brewers yeast for every 10 cups of food, they’re legs are strong and they LOVE running around outside. Do I need to decrease the amount of brewers yeast they need or could have been putting less this whole time cause they’re flyin through it?

It"s my understanding the correct amount is one Tablespoon to one cup of feed. Your one cup of BY is equal to 16 tbsp, yes way to much to your ten cups of feed. Welcome to BYC.

BTW, do not worry about too much brewers yeast. Any excess will just go right through them without harming them. I usually don't stop the yeast until they are 8 weeks old.

I sprinkle about 2 heaping tablespoons of nutritional yeast on top of my grown duck's food buckets when I refill them. It's good for them and will do no harm like @Texag87 said.

With the garlic-flavored yeast, you may only use 1tabl since the strong taste.
