I need to try something else so that I will be less stressed about them getting green food. Of course, the grass and weeds still are green all winter. But, some days the weather is not fit for me to be out. Those days, the hens huddle at the back door or under the picnic table. There is not much foraging happening out there.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14991571309786149363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3023803000478958088.post-22513445765761409212013-03-10T10:54:17.535-04:002013-03-10T10:54:17.535-04:00A "bit" of snow, lol...that picture show...A "bit" of snow, lol...that picture shows quite a bit. Timely post on sprouting - I have a few lentils left in the bottom of a bag that I want to try sprouting and spent a lot of last evening googling easy methods. Never thought of ice cream buckets!

They turn out very bitter and sort of too crispy. The mung beans anyway- I haven't tried eating any of the others yet. I do plan to try the chia and peas though, maybe I'll have better luck with them.Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11557512606416161272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3023803000478958088.post-12421484191067455242013-03-09T13:05:24.689-05:002013-03-09T13:05:24.689-05:00That's a good idea on a small enough scale tha...That's a good idea on a small enough scale that I could do it inside, too!

My friend always has sprouts growing on her kitchen counter to add to sandwiches. Mine turn out a tad too bitter for that. lol I kind of wish I had chickens to give my attempts to instead of the compost pile!Sue Frelickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13150735651127251014noreply@blogger.com
