Chirping
I am wondering if anyone has found benefits (or non-benefits) of feeding crushed wood charcoal mixed with vinegar to your chickens? I have been researching alternatives to store-bought corn and soy based bagged feed and bagged feed in general. I found several articles about the benefits of feeding/mixing with feed/supplementing with natural wood charcoal lumps, crushed charcoal and crushed charcoal mixed with vinegar. Benefits mentioned with the vinegar/charcoal mix (backed by pubmed.gov) included thicker eggs w/ increased collagen in eggs and meat of chickens. Any experience or comments?
