Liz Crain demonstrates how to open a Grain Bag containing Feed for her Chickens on Leafhopper Farm a Permaculture Demonstration Project in the Pacific Northwest. She also discusses the benefits of using loose assortments of grains over pressed pellets.
How to Open a Bag of Grain
- Put the Grain Sack upright
- Look for the corner with a slip loop in the string
- Pull the end of the long paper tab to release the loop
- Pull the string from its loosened end until the bag is open
Benefits of Loose Assorted Grains
- Allows Chickens to pick out elements of the feed containing nutrients their bodies need.
- Does not need to be heated like Grain Pellets leaving more nutrients and enzymes intact.
