Daphne Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 um ... my OH used to make beer from scratch from hops, malted barley etc and I was told not to give the chooks the spent mash stuff, and although I can't remember why, somebody did say it was specifically not good for chooks. You might want to google it. I always threw the mash on the compost or directly on the garden out of the way. The beer was always a big hit - although not with the chooks obviously! He did bitter and stout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
