Mill Food Recycler for chickens

[chickengr]

my chickens would not eat that. it might be good for garden, not chickens.

Same, my chickens would never eat that peat-looking stuff. They really hate the consistency. They like solid food.

You just joined today - how are you affiliated? Your post is very suspicious....

I agree. All of that poster’s content seems very invested in promoting that “product”.

I didn’t want to click on the link provided in the OP. So I did my own google search. This is a bona fide product. I’m not convinced yet that you could feed the processed food scraps to chickens, but this article from Chowhound was interesting:

Time will tell if this kind of kitchen waste processing becomes an established thing.

I still can't find a reason to spend 800$ for something that turns food scraps into manure powder. Just spend 2 minutes to cut the scraps into small bites and feed it to the chickens. 2 minute per day isn't worth 800$ + the electric bill.

Yeah, a solution to a problem that doesn't exist. I can buy a lot of chicken feed for $800 and just tossing the scraps to the chickens doesn't require chopping it up or anything other than dumping it in the pen. Stinky? Hardly enough left in three minutes to stink. Cleaning out the gizmo would be a bit of trouble on its own to stop it from stinking.

Hard pass......
