Chicken ONE Delicious…our meat birds are Bardrock/Orpington mix. Free range with non-GMO scratch supplement. They dress out at 2.5 to 3 lbs. The meat is tasty and there is no fat.
So, what did we find out? Well…dressing more birds we found out that heavy on the Bardrock mix gives substantially more breast meat than the straight Orpington…who knew?
Duck Weed is 40% protein. It’s a treat for the ducks.
Keep the top full of weed and the water underneath remains algae-free.
Don’t pass out too much at one time. If it gets below a certain percentage of covering the top, it takes too long to grow back and you will get algae.
Tilapia love the duck weed, too!
Our original duck weed was available on eBay…
Happy Homesteading,
