Reducing mash waste

[blue ribbon roo]

I use a 5-gal. bucket to catch mash hens would otherwise throw away. I place it under the feeder.
Any other ideas?

This is what I have tried for dealing with the waste in my scratch (I posted this just a few minutes ago "3 grain Chicken Scratch Corn Bread" and I haven't feed it too them yet I will in the morning. Its from the fine almost dust (meal) when I sift the scratch to keep it from their pans, . Im thinking I could add the mash instead of the flour or both before baking. I just dont know if it would be as tasty (I keep forgetting I made the corn bread for them!) The recipe is in my post Its a corn bread recipe.



Its absolutly delicious! Hope they like it Im having another slice with my venison pumpkin curry!

Wet it and feed it...that's how mash is supposed to be fed. Or, you can go the ultimate step and really reduce waste.....
