Hi-
I am planning to get a small group of Cornish X as well as some egg layers this spring. I have been reading about fermenting the food and having it potentially increase the protein and reduce the consumption amounts. So my question is: Can I keep the chicks together and ferment regular chick starter/grower and feed it to the whole group, or do I need to keep them separate with their own specific types of diet? Any experience or suggestions are greatly appreciated!
