⠀ Does anyone make silage for their chickens?

[jruhle]

I was wanting to experiment with making silage from the abundant greens on our property. Is it difficult?

I've never heard of anyone doing it, but maybe someone has.

There's another thread on this topic here:

And here are a couple of links to articles explaining how for small scale farmers:

There even seems to be youtube videos on making it.

interesting idea
