when chicken shit was eaten by the larvae, the larvae became nutritious when eaten by the chicken.

you produce larvae by culturing black soldier fly insect.

yes fresh manure is great. no need to dry it. just give fresh manure to bsfl and they will love to eat it.

as soon as the fresh manure drops, the bsfl starts to eat it so its always dry.

the larvae eats fresh manure as soon as its dropped.

maggots from house flies carries diseases. but this maggot from black soldier fly is different. they dont carry disease. so very big difference. bsf maggot or larvae is safe.

yes. its still organic. think of it like this analogy. say an american eats arabic foods. does that mean he is no longer an american? of course not. even if an american eats indian foods his whole life, it doesn't change the fact that he is still an american, not indian. same thing with BSF, no matter what you feed the larvae, it doesn't change the fact that its an insect and its one of the nutritious and natural food of chickens which is organic (meaning no commercial or artificial ingredients). hope this helps :)

Thanks

​@@LindaBurston A thought. It depends on the 'organic' in your question. Larva eat only 'organic/carbon/natural'...called "Organic Matter" However, if what you are asking Is if the Larve can be call "certified organic", I believe that the organic matter (feed source) would need tobe certified. ***Maybe your interest is in selling Certified Organic meat birds or C.O. eggs -- and that is a very good question!*** ...I thought the American eating indian food, did not answer your question... yes, BSF larva is still BSF larva which is a natural food sorce for chickens. My 2cents.

@@reneebulkley1333 yes, thank you. You are on the same track. If you feed a chicken something that is not organic, it wont be organic. If the BSF larvae are not organic because of the non organic food they have been fed, then your bird could not be organic. That's what I was looking for clarity on. Thanks again.

I've found out that feeding 100% BSFL makes my chickens grow fast and the taste is good also. same with eggs. they lay big eggs and delicious eggs too when fed 100% BSFL. but sometimes if I have low stocks of with BSFL as feeds, I mix with other ingredients mostly edible plant leaves. but most of the time, its 100% BSFL if my stocks are abundant.

thank u ​@@radicalfarming

yes it is. provided you supplement them with vitamins in their water.

Thanks for your comment! The audio was generated using ai to provide clear narration. While it's not a human voice, it helps keep things consistent and easy to follow. Appreciate your feedback!

they surely love real grains, seeds and most of all insects like black soldier fly larvae because they get all their nutritional needs specially energy during the winter.

yes its possible.

@@johnologunde2781 no! Chickens need carbohydrates, and minerals and vitamins that are found in greens, and seeds and protein sources like BSF. Chickens will eat what their bodies need given the choice they will eat greens, seeds and proteins.

Glad it was helpful! btw, there's also plenty of great information in our site found in this link --> farmingblacksoldierfly.com/

yes its possible!

thanks

Glad you enjoy it! you can also visit our site to learn more about BSF. heres the link farmingblacksoldierfly.com/

Glad it was helpful!

you can feed 100% bsf. this saves you a lot from feeds by not buying anymore commercial feeds. feeding 100% bsfl is 100% free!

nevermind the vioice. but trust the facts said in the video. its been well researched!

Thanks for your comment! While AI can sound advanced, the focus here is on the main topic of the video, which is really about how black soldier fly larvae can tackle food security, climate change and organic waste. I encourage you to focus on those key insights! Let me know if you have any questions about it!

Either that or it's scripted, but the reply to this comment from them definitely has an ai vibe

@@QueenEllouise Thanks for the comment! I write my replies to keep the conversation going and address feedback. I get how it might sound that way sometimes, but I’m always here to personally engage and appreciate everyone’s input!

yes 100% BSF larvae! no other ingredients in feed except additional vitamins in their water. that's all really :)

@@radicalfarming thank you so much for your prompt reply. What vitamins are necessary? Don't they need a carb source?

@@KhamlandChronicles-kq4gmthis is not correct. Chickens need greens also.

@@idahofmegal821 Thanks for that, what about carbohydrates?

@@KhamlandChronicles-kq4gm they get the carbohydrates from greens. Chickens that are allowed to free range will eat grass, leaves, seeds, bugs etc. They eat a varied diet and can actually get protein toxicity from being fed only protein sources.

in small amounts its actualy good for them but in high amounts its not good. so you need to pay attention to the waste that you feed to your larvae so that its safe for chickens to consume.

@radicalfarming yea but its us or chickens in any amount

@@riknitzburg9650 technically if you feed your chickens organic stuff then there shouldn't be an issue. bottom line is that you should be mindful on what you feed your larvae so that its safe for chickens and human.

@radicalfarming for sure, and u want to make sure there is a little heavy metals as u can

@@riknitzburg9650 usually if you feed your chickens organic stuff, a very little heavy metals are present in there which should be fine and actually good for optimum growth of the larvae.

cge po ano po request nyo para magawan natin ng podcast din po :)

Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I get that the AI voice isn’t for everyone, but the key info in the video might still be really helpful. I’d encourage you to focus on the main points-there’s a lot of value there! Let me know if you have any questions about the content!

@@radicalfarming I was speaking literally when I said I can't handle that voice, lol... I had to stop the video. If you don't want to use a real narrator, maybe include subtitles so we can mute and still get the info?

@@AgnesMariaL Thanks for the feedback! I totally understand that the voice isn't for everyone. I'll definitely consider adding subtitles in future videos so you can still get the info without the sound. Appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts!

@@radicalfarming no problem! IDK what it is with the AI voices, but it's like they almost physically hurt my ears and make me cringe... I've seen in comments sections on other videos using this tech that I'm not the only one :)

@@AgnesMariaL Thanks for sharing your experience! I’ve noticed similar feedback from others, and I’m looking into ways to improve that-maybe subtitles or a different approach to the narration. I appreciate you sticking around and letting me know. Your input helps a lot!

hi, you can watch this video if you're interested in growing black soldier fly th-cam.com/video/D2nJMbRFzyU/w-d-xo.html

yes po. dapat sakto lang. hindi tuyo at hindi din matubig.

yes can.

thank you very much for your kind words! if you want to learn more, you can checkout this site for more info farmingblacksoldierfly.com/

Tnx fo the info's.

basically im talking the dangers of commercial feeds and encourage every farmer to switch to organic farming.

same thing

@@radicalfarming Can u recommend a ratio?

if you're on Facebook, join a group related to bsf and hopefully you'll see a seller in your area that you can contact to.

Another question is, "do you feed bsf lavae alone, without any grains, from day one to slaughter/sale?"

@@frankkunkundi786 hi, the bsf eggs are hatched first in a separate container until they are about 1 week old before putting the young larvae into the trays beneath the cage to catch the chicken manure as their food until they are matured enough and ready to harvest in about 2 -3 weeks.

The 41% crude protein (CP) mentioned in the video refers to the dried Black Soldier Fly larvae (BSFL).

Thanks

It has to be dried BSFL. Fresh is about 16% crude protein.

@@wumioyerinde6691 if its indeed 16% fresh as you said then it's perfectly fine to feed fresh larvae to chickens as 16% is about right for their maintenance needs. but I believe that's not the case, even fresh larvae have more protein.

while its good to know BUT there's still COST especially fish meal which is getting EXPENSIVE these days. that's why I stick to BSFL because not only its comparable to fishmeal best of all is that its FREE!

What is BSFL?
