My chickens and their “HIGH” quality treats

Never fed hemp seeds, but did have some brownies that the lady was selling at Mallory Square in Key West. They were relaxing.

Just an fyi feeding your birdies hemp seed does wonders for their color.

What about chia seeds? I know they have omega 3 and 6 so I am assuming it's great for their feathers...

According to the article and this one, it's .3% or less. Anymore and it's considered marijuana.

The feeling that anyone is getting from hemp would be in their head. Or they aren't ingesting hemp.

Yes, chia seeds are great!I've also used flax seeds as well.I am also investigating making a grass fodder system? has anyone tried that? I'm all for trying to grow our own feed and saving money on feed.

You can buy unshelled hemp seed in the grocery stores or any specialty food markets. And yes, they carry a high omega content and are entirely helalthy for people, birds, and hermit crabs too!

Chia seeds sprouted make for some well loved treats.
Fast growing fodder squares too, very welcome greenery with minimal effort.
