Old black guy got tired of using commercial feed and his hands to stop playing. So he bought him a 1 pound bag of cheap dried beans boil them down soften them up then mixed in some cheap elbow macaroni softened it up mix it all together and fed those chickens two spoonfuls until it was gone and then he put 2 to 4 more spoonfuls in there. But the chickens never jumped on each other they would eat until they got full and walk around and then come back if they wanted more.

Anyone who has backyard chickens, needs to make a Blue Soldier Fly bin. We have 1000's of them at the shop. They raise there at will. They even self harvest themselves out of the bin. I'm attaching a video that I haven't watched completely. I know how to grow them. LOL FYI, you DO NOT have to buy larvae to start your bin. You build the bin, they'll come on their own. Do more YT watching. There are some tricks to getting the adults to lay the eggs where you want them to. Wood blocks stacked close together or something. These larvae are sold, freeze dried to feed to chickens. They are incredibly simple to raise. They also have more nutrition that any chicken feed you can buy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KrS-EPo-GQA

A recipe I found online which yielded about 17% protein is as follows (expensive now thanks to inflation)
whole oats - 30lbs whole corn - 20lbs black oil sunflower - 20lbs split peas - 10lbs flax seed - 5lbs
haven't priced it yet but its going to be expensive
There is 2 different high fence. 1 small and one big! Mine was free range in the big pen and was not a breeder buck. Why does it have to be twisted around??
