Yes but what about the fermented feed? Water would add extra weight....
What are pellet vitamins and why are you adding it to the FF and not to the dry?So one benefit for FF (fermented feed) is that the birds eat less of it. Well I am testing this idea out.
So I have 43 birds in 3 pens.
30 standered hens, serama cockrels, serama roos and bantams.
3 ducks
And 10 seramas (3 hens 7 chicks)
Dry food:
The pen of 30 eats 4-4.5 quarts a day
The pen of ducks eats .75 quarts
The pen of seramas eats 1 quart.
And FF I have yet to test
Today I am measuring and giving FF.
Pen of 30 has 4 quarts
Serama pen has 1 quart
And duck pen has .75
I will give FF for 3 days straight measuring and recording feed amounts and reporting here. After this test I will average out the feeding amounts and then feed dry feed for 3 days then average the amounts and compare the 2.
If I add any feed to the pens I will post here or any left over after the day.
I feed purina flock raiser and just ferment that and add pellet vitamins.
For dry food I just feed the feed
Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions for me!
They will last close to the same amount of time.I'm more of trying to see how long 7 quarts of FF vs 7 quarts if dry feed lasts
