I recently started sprouting barley seeds to use as supplemental greens for my chickens. So far, they just love it!
I do have one question for those of you who are more experienced in sprouting. Do flies & other insects just seem to hang around a lot? When I first started, I was sprouting the barley outdoors in the shade. Lots & lots of flies hanging around. We had a few cool nights, so I brought the sprouts inside. Then I had some other small flying insect all over the place.
Has anyone had this problem?
