Well major bummer today......my feed went up $3.00 per 50 lbs. WOW is all I can say, egg prices will be going up in the store soon too!

I agree, yet I found the description of the process fascinating. Also, a few weeks ago I had the pH bottom out on my tilapia tank and I lost two good sized (~1lb each) fish which I fed whole to the chickens. They picked them clean.That seems aweful involved and using equipment most people don't have in their kitchen. If I get to the point of growing fish (which I eventually do intend) I plan on feeding fresh, but if I have to store for seasonal harvesting I think dehydrating it would be fine. It would be easy to reconstitute and feed out.
I'm thinking what I'll do is have a shallow pan with water in it, in the birds' yards. Then I'll catch several fish from my pond (to be) and put them in the pans and let the birds catch them. That will be some fun chicken tv for me!
As soon as this weather cools down I'll be having my strapping young son start digging a big hole for a concrete pond. Then, hopefully before winter, I can get it stocked with some fathead minnows and they can do their thing and make lots of babies for my birds!![]()
