They have 'trash' leaves for bedding that city folk were kind enough to bag up for me. They are mostly fed restaurant trash and sprouted sunflower seeds. They don't really touch the feeder of grains. Trash into compost and eggs! I will not eat ze bugs.

When sunflower seeds were on sale for $9 for a 40# bag, I bought 10 of them. Sprouted 3 quarts at a time every other day.

Jarusalem artichokes, the grow with no tending and my chickens love them. I do have to crush them for the chickens.

Winter squash, they store well.

Nice. I have some sunchokes going. I planted a 5 gallon bucket of them 2 years ago. Some patches could be dug and spread. I'm not sure I could get rid of them if I wanted to. I'll have to plant a bunch of squash. Thanks.
