I have noticed since yesterday that my FF has a kind of yeasty beer type smell. About the same kind of odour you would have if you were making a home brew - sort of sweet/yeasty. Is this ok to feed the chickens or is there something going wrong with the FF ?
It's fine. You can feed them that with no concern.
For the person who asked if the hens will just keep eating till the trough is empty?
My hens do not. I give them a scoop in the morning and another at night. There is always ff left in the trough at night when they roost. They just finish it for breakfast. But my girls are out foraging everyday. They don't free range but have over 200 ft electric netting to forage in.
