I've found that I usually wind up feeding the same amount/measure of FF that I did when I fed dry, so half cup per bird is the usual ration unless it's during high foraging months here.

Half a cup dry or half a cup fermented?I've found that I usually wind up feeding the same amount/measure of FF that I did when I fed dry, so half cup per bird is the usual ration unless it's during high foraging months here.
Quote: I have figured that my birds eat approximately 1/2 cup of dry ber bird per day. 4 qt dry mixed with water = 2 days feed for 16 birds.
When ever I have whey standing on top of my yogurt, it gets dumped into the FF bucket.Maybe a new question here folks about fermenting...@Aozora posted this thread https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/1150222/milk-fed-poultry#post_18000189
about feeding goats milk to chickens.
I make my own yogurt from local cow's milk, which is non-homogenized.
Could we ferment chicken feed with milk? Or yogurt? Or add a little of that to the ferment? Along with water? Or use whey?
Any thoughts? (Sounds like a potentially exciting prospect to me).
