abwsco Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 Just a quicky. Does it have a use by date on it? Still haven't got my chickens or a definate date but I want to start getting their "bottom draw" ready. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovemychooks Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 I've got a bag of bokashi bran and have just had a look and the label states that it can be kept for up to 6 months. Hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abwsco Posted April 13, 2008 Author Share Posted April 13, 2008 Just about to order from Wiggly Wigglers, as I think they're the cheapest place but realised I don't know how much to use and do you use it daily. I'll be getting 6 exbatts if that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 I use probably a good tbsp when I fill each grub....probably three times a week x 3 grubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abwsco Posted April 13, 2008 Author Share Posted April 13, 2008 Thanks Egluntine So I'd be Ok ordering a 3kg bag then or is that too much for 6 months. Never having seen it I can't visualise it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjules Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 I got through about 150g per month with 2 chooks and now I have 8 I've just ordered a 3kg bag today (spooky!). I'd say that's about the right size for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Thanks Egluntine So I'd be Ok ordering a 3kg bag then or is that too much for 6 months. Never having seen it I can't visualise it That would be quite a big bag. I get 600g delivered every couple of months by Wiggly Wigglers.

abwsco Posted April 13, 2008 Author Share Posted April 13, 2008 Thanks both I can always bung it in the compost bin as well so will go for the 3kg bag. BTW I found it elsewhere in a quick websearch selling for £24 for a 2kg bag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjules Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 I looked at the 600g multimail option - but it was a lot more expensive than the 3kg (on a per kilo basis!) and I'm too much of a cheapskate! I'm sure the chooks will get through it in 6 months. Wigglys certainly seems the cheapest and their service is good too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
