I'll check out the thread. We're currently renovating our coop and plan on using sand. Is that the deep litter method? This forum has a wealth of info.
Enjoy the day!

Hi! This is my first attempt at FF. Did I add to much water? I used chick starter, ACV, BOSS, Garlic, cayenne, wild bird seed, oregano....think thats it. it smells delish It's been 24 hours since making it. Thank you for any info.

I'm doing mine the exact same way and they love it! Same jar too lol Been doing it for about 4 weeks now.

well i have been feeding ff to my chicks for a week and they love it it has cut down on their water consumption but they do eat about 5wice as much as they had been but that may be because they r growing like weeds!

I love this big jar. It's actually pretty and I don't one having it out on the counter. My little chicks aren't so sure about the FF, but the big k es love it

How much do you feed per bird and how often.

 

[JacqueOCS]

I haven't been measuring it out. I just scoop some into the feeder dishes and let them have it. They nibble throughout the day. Probably need to take down the self feeders for now. How much do you feed yours?

chicks r suppose to have feed at all times and adults r to be feed once or twice a day according to how much they r free ranged and play around woth the amount to see how much the amount lasts however long u want it to

Thank you Moo Moo Our adult hens and Roos free range all day, but still love the FF. my chicks keep stepping intomit. They do peck at the FF, but just don't seem to "get it" yet. Hopefully in time
