Wet Feed

Hi, my name is Mandy and I’m kind of a moron.

My flock is spending their first week in their outside coop/run and they’re loving life. Yesterday, we all experienced their first rainstorm. They did just fine, but I had a little water that pooled on the roof. Their feed is hung right under the covered part of their run and when I poked the cover on the run to get the pooled rain out…I dumped it right their feeder. I just put three quarters of a bag in it yesterday.

They don’t seem to care a bit, but being the worried first time mom - is that ok or should I toss it all??

I personally would toss it after a couple days. It will start to get moldy.

Unfortunately you will not want to leave it in there more than a day or two. Mold is a serious concern.

Yep - that’s exactly what I was thinking. We’ll toss it tomorrow when the feed store opens up. Thanks guys!!
