How to save money while raising chickens is one of my favorite topics with feeding the chickens for free being my ultimate goal. Of course cheap chicken feed ranks pretty high on my list of favorite things too! So I went in search of every free and cheap chicken feed source I could find and I found a lot of common advice and several outside the box amazing ideas for feeding the chickens for free, or cheap!
Many of us have the same free chicken feed ideas and some of the advice I saw often was:
- allow the chickens to free range
- give them scraps and leftovers from the kitchen
- cook extra eggs for the chickens
- grow fodder for the chickens
- ferment layer feed
These were the methods that everybody had tried and had great success with. Of course I already use those ideas, so I was looking for new substitutes for chicken feed.
