How To Make Chicken Scratch


No, I am not talking about my poor penmanship, nor am I looking at yours, relax. What I am talking about is a tasty treat (if that is, you are a chicken!) This is a pretty easy mix of grains that really make your birds happy. My chickens love this. They will stand at the fence watching while we make it. Even my turkeys love it and try to climb the fence to get a sample. Good thing the fence is tall or I might lose a finger. You give scratch to them in the winter time to help the flock to stay warm. It is like poultry candy

1- 50 lb bag of Wheat

1- 50lb bag of Millet

  1. Love this and I'm sure our chickens would, too. I especially like that last picture. Nature's colors are my favorite pallet.
