good morning!
I was meaning to ask if there was to much water on the top? It hasn't soaked all in yet.

 

[moomoodiddy]

it depends on how much water u put in not all of it will be soaked up but when u scoop and drain u can get rid of the excess water

 

[JacqueOCS]

Okay, thank you. So however much I take out I replace to keep it going, correct?

 

[moomoodiddy]

ummmm...... i just make a new batch

 

[JacqueOCS]

Okay, thank you!

Okay, thank you!

it is also my understanding that as long as u replace what u take out that u keep it going indefinately.

Good morning Crystal!

I thought I had read that somewhere in the many posts about FF. I just gave the chicks the first feeding of it. They were not sure at first, but are venturing towards it now. They love a scrambled egg in the morning, so this is something else new for their menu

. Going to take some FF out to the big birds here in a bit and see how it goes.

Enjoy day and thank you for responding!

your welcome.I am very new to fermenting my feed but there is a lady on BYC(aka...mumsy) who is very knowledgeable.I first spoke with her on the silkie thread,however I just stumbled on another thread(natural chicken keeping thread) which is interesting,and she is also there. If you really want to learn more I would check it out. There are also others that can be very helpful.I'm also just learning about the deep litter method for my coops.(just something else I found very interesting) Have a great day!
