Thank you for everyone's input. I started my first batch in Friday night. I have to admit that I gave the girls a few small bowls of the feed the next morning. They snapped it up quickly. I then added just a bit more feed and water and BOSS to continue the process. I am not sure if that was wrong to do, but I think I might have stirred it to much. I am no longer getting that froth on top. It still smells like I think it should and still bubbles up, so I think the process is still going fine. I have resisted doing anything else but stir once a day since. So hard to wait!
I did start another jar of it without the BOSS and I won't touch it for 4 days. The amount of feed I put in the jars was 1 cup dry per Bird, so I think that should last 2 days. I have more room in my container, so I think I will add more the next go around. Here are my 2 jars. The left is what I started on Friday night and there other was from this morning. How is it looking?
Thanks again to everyone. I am so excited to try this!
