Wanting to sprout seeds for chickens and quails

[Kayla's Lunch]

Sprouts in general are riskier than planting for microgreens, due to bacteria dangers.

Whole Peas are a good choice and can be found in ethnic food stores.

I have come across that before about the problems with sprouts. When you say whole peas, do you mean the dried peas in the grocery store?

Does anyone feed a mostly homemade diet?

Thanks! Do you know how many hours of sun a day would be required? ... it is hard to find a spot that gets sun all day long.

That's fine. Microgreens are often grown in the dark for the first week or so and only greened up with the sun at the end, for optimum tenderness.

Yes, I've only found them around here in a Hispanic grocery store.
