If
you’ve been meaning to learn more about Black
Soldier Flies as a
possible feed supplement for your chicken flock, then you should
consider checking out an excellent
interview Frank Aragona produced
earlier this year.
It’s free to download like
all his past shows, and he really goes into some
depth with black soldier fly expert Jerry from blacksoldierflyblog.com.
We’ve already made plans for
a homemade bio pod container to be installed in the new pasture
chicken coop later this spring.
Black Soldier Flies are
noteworthy for being easy to propagate. The
long term goal with this project is to provide enough supplemental
sources of food for our egg production hens, which means we could stop
paying over 11 dollars a bag for laying pellets.

information on BSF’s.
