Once its up and running at a good volume it should provide our laying hen operation with a lot of their favorite protein source, which in turn should maximize their laying.<br /><br />Permaculture is SO the way.Jerryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10354640729644229842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5301855515376548538.post-77133053316518337132009-05-27T20:18:52.949-04:002009-05-27T20:18:52.949-04:00Good ideas--though as a vegetarian now turned vega...Good ideas--though as a vegetarian now turned vegan I'm not likely to use them. Still, I'm sure they could be helpful to other readers.<br /><br />Thanks for your suggestions.

You're always on the money in your writings- one of the things I like about you.<br /><br />I'd like to add that while omnivores do compost like most, they have the additional waste meat to deal with, and meat can't be put into regular compost piles.However, back in the day I had a neighbor who lightly buried the household meat scraps in one area, and mined the worms that ate it for fishing. He said they were great bait! And the fish bones, etc. went into his garden, co,pleting yet more recycling.Austanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05568578637922817033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5301855515376548538.post-31326902564034602792009-05-27T08:25:21.810-04:002009-05-27T08:25:21.810-04:00I appreciate your sweet words, Robyn.
