Fermented feed schedule?

[aaroncoolio]

When feeding fermented feed, how much should be given to each chicken? How many times a day? Thanks.

Have you read any of the fermented feed threads on this site? They are loaded with info.

yeah, they are loaded with info, but they're also loaded with alot of off topic stuff, and really really long... I don't have time to go through all of them....

Aim for feeding as much as they can completely eat in about 30 minutes. If there is a little leftover, that's okay. Try starting out with 1/2 a cup per bird. Some people feed once a day in the eve and others feed twice a day (additional feeding in morn). If you choose once a day, ideally they also free range during the day. Whatever frequency you decide upon, experiment with quantity until they are leaving just a little bit leftover. Then you'll know how much is enough but not too much. It will change as the temperatures get colder in winter... They will need more.
