I use pumpkins to ferment my feed in... I got about 30 last year and would use them as "buckets". Cut 3 open, use to ferment in until they get too mushy to use again, then toss the whole thing in the run. Then, cut another one open and rotate. They lasted until January, then started freezing solid, becoming dangerous frozen balls of fermented feed lol. Worked great and they loved them! Excited to raid the patch again this year
Here's some pics
Awesome ideas thank you now all I need is for the little buggers to hatch 18 in lockdown day 20... Sit and wait... This is my new flock since I relocated from WI to NY I'm too excited.
