They are pretty, and still fun to watch despite the need for patience with them.

Which one of those animals, does 'teenager' fall under?

So when I look at the guides its saying you strain the water out before giving it to the animals. But its almost day 3 and its become so soupy that when I try to measure it out to give to the animals I have no idea how much I'm giving because its so hard to separate water from the feed anymore...

Thank you. Fun stuff. Just to clarify, are you talking flame roast, or oven roast?

As it says in the topic line...

My runners were exactly like that even now! Hahaha. The trampling each other bit especially brings up some fun memories. They are not as improved from that as I like. They seem to be trying to make up their mind on being hysterical or getting food. I swear they don't want me to see them eating...

So often I wonder, how do you tell if your ducks like you? Its hard to know right? Mine act afraid to be grabbed, and will run away. But they will chatter like crazy when they see me coming with the food. It makes you wonder if they are really tamed or not? what do you think? But I also had...

I'm curious if geese will run away, if you are letting them forage and also not pinioning, trimming flight feathers on one wing etc? (I forgot the right word for this, but people do it with ducks and chickens without hurting the wing.) Why would they stay if they can go at any time somewhere...

So I wanted to ask if Swans can be trained to accept humans like ducks and geese can? (Some will laugh that I put geese in there probably.) And yeah ducks only domesticate so far... But they do accept me bringing them food and taking their eggs and even chasing them around a bit for fun. So...

Does fermenting the feed and getting the gains from it still work OK, when its cold outside? (And/Or would you have to ferment the feed inside?)

That's fun! That's what I'm looking for! Especially its hard when I go to the grocery store and seeing everything going up in prices all the time.

Thank you very much. I'm curious how much you safe once you get it efficient?

Do you have to worry about mold or stuff going bad? (And how do you prevent this?) I'm only asking this because I'd had so much trouble with BOSS.

I feed ducks and chickens fermented or sprouts. Both work well for them. I don't feed my rabbits this yet, because I want to experiment with getting it right. Supposedly you can feed sprouts to rabbits, but they are really easy to get sick from mold supposedly. The reason I mention that, is...

So someone told me you can ferment chicken laying mash and not only whole grains in the seed form. Can anyone confirm this? Most of the articles I saw it looked like it was only the full seed version. But I'd like to know if it can be done with normal laying mash also (for poultry)? Thanks.

So I recently wondered if the ratio of foragers in a large hive is smaller than the ratio of foragers in small hives? What do you think about this? It could be smaller for this ratio on a rapidly expanding hive. And a rapidly expanding hive could be large... This kind of questioning has a...

I would test it on small batches first, to not lose money if it doesn't work. It can be frustrating if you buy a lot and then find out it may not work for you.

So I wanted to ask what's the minimum space you can have between cages of rabbits to get them to not be too lonely and isolated (from the other nearby cages)? I asked this because I think one of my cages was too far from the others with the buck in it. And I didn't like that, so i moved it...

So...I was watching a Youtube Bob Binnie video on feeding. The video was titled 'feeding bees - who, what, why, when' etc if you need or want to reference it yourselves. Anyway when i was watching this video he starts talking about yeast growing in the sugar syrup feeding containers being...

So I wanted to ask if its easier to do barley and field pea sprouts or wheat sprouts compared to BOSS sprouting. Initially I started doing boss sprouting a few months ago. It started out well.. Then I got my first batch of mold, despite being careful. I changed and adjusted. I began putting...
