It will solve (for me, at least) a bunch of issues with letting chooks "free-range" while getting them to areas in need of their "services"! ;)

I am at my wits end, these lil buggers are nuts! :giggle:

3x a day I go and change the water for them because they all try to fit inside the water bowl at the same time ((6 of them)) & occasionally try to drink from it. :think:

I guess I am switching over to a nipple system, but wow, these buggers are nuttier then a US Senator. :giggle:

Any other suggestions? :) ]]> Breeding, Raising, Feeding and Caring for Animals Pakanohida http://forums.permaculturenews.org/showthread.php?16551-Indian-Runners-amp-Water...

Hi all,

I have seen black soldier fly larvae mentioned in a few threads on here, but would like some info from people who keep/have kept them on the specifics of breeding them, any tips, pros and cons vs worms or maggots, etc.

I am looking to use them as a chook food. Any advice is appreciated.

Thanks ]]> Breeding, Raising, Feeding and Caring for Animals lukemurphy http://forums.permaculturenews.org/showthread.php?16540-Black-soldier-fly-farm
