If you do how much do you charge per packet? What is the size of the bag in which they are contained?

Recently found out, I’m not allowed to have them, of course after I fell in love with them. I just started my little flock in July. I have a meeting with mayor of my little town on Tuesday, so wish me luck! They are saying there bothersome, I’m saying there all koo-koo. I’ve never been more happier than just watching them and taking care of them, since kids moved, there my new little baby’s. Any suggestions to help me convince mayor in keeping them???

I have been on the fence for a while about growing fodder for my chickens but this is a great resource! Your chickens are lucky to have you!!

I just started raising chickens this past March. I now have 6 hens and 2 roos (looking for a new home for one) since they just started fighting.

Like you I live in AZ. and don’t have grass or good grazing so I have started to grow fodder. Right now I am doing barley but plan on trying wheat soon. The chickens love it an I think it will be great for winter.

Good luck!

Hi Patty, I saw your comment and thought I’d better share what I found. Apparently milo, sometimes called sorghum, produces arsenic or something like that when sprouted. They say not to let animals graze on milo except for during certain stages of growth. Sprouting milo creates poison. Hopefully it hasn’t been an issue since it’s only part of the feed, but it could make for poisonous eggs. Maybe it doesn’t work that way, but something to look into.
