So, about the heat, can you leave it outside and still get a good ferment and not ruin it? It's getting frakking HOT down here in SETX ( like upper 80's alreay and soon to be 90s all day) and I'd like to try to ferment some later in the summer when i have to switch to TX Natural layer crumbles (bc H&H is fab but I can't drive 2 hours to get it every few months) and my hens don't seem to like Tx Natural.
Also I am getting a grandpa's treadle feeder soon and I am wondering, if I put a layer of sticky plastic in the feed bin of the feeder, would that protect it if I use fermented feed? I don't want to damage the galvanized feeder. I also don't want to have to build another feeder because I've gone through 3 feeder building teaks in the last month or so.
Keep it in the shade? It should be ok. I have mine in the coop with morning sunshine and it's high 90's out of Shreveport.
