Got it! Thank you!!!Beware Tea Chick. There is NOTHING, and I do mean NOTHING in this world that smells worse than a rotten egg. A rotten egg coming out of the incubator will explode if you so much as look at it wrong. I had that unfortunate experience in 6th grade when a goose egg exploded in my hands. We had to evacuate the entire wing of the school for the remainder of the day. I do recommend that you do an egg-topsy so you can get an idea what went wrong. But, please, do it outside!
And by the smug look on his face, he is well aware of his good looks!
Thanks Sue, I will do just this!!When I was doing it very small scale, I didn't have drain holes at all. I soaked overnight like you said, spread in the tray, then used a SPRAYER to lightly spray the seeds a couple times/day to keep them from drying out totally. Not enough to have water sitting in the bottom of the tray at any depth. Just kept them damp.
It's at the very end of this article...way down at the bottom.
I'll read through the yeast articles later....thanks!
I had looked into using BREWERS YEAST. I found only ONE that was not cultured on GMO products. So even if they claim that they are "GMO FREE", if you contact them and press for the real information, you find that the substrate they use is NOT GMO Free.
....
Oh...and Brewer's/Nutritional yeast is inactive yeast with none of the issues you'd find with active yeast.
Lewis Labs is the only company that would clearly state that their yeast was grown on non-GMO substrate. I emailed them to ask about the issue since they were using sugar beets as a substrate for the nutritional yeast and most of the sugar beats are GMO (I won't buy beet sugar..only cane because of this issue).
And look at the nutrition profile: A good amount of pritein... And another theory I have is that yeast protein is "animal" protein...Not sure if I'm correct on that but it makes sense to me that it would be "animal" source and very bio-available.
One think I'm concerned about is phosphorus level..not sure how much is too much for chickens.
