This reminds me of a story my grandpa told, he and a couple of friends worked at a pig farm as teens. They would have a bunch of carcasses and he heard about hanging a pig over a pond so the maggots drop into the water feeding the fish then a week later he'd take some maggots and use them as bait and they were so used to maggots already it was bite after bite. He could get a small tin of maggots from outside his work and catch enough fish to eat. This was back in the 50s
if you want free food to use use your scraps/unused leftover standard but if you want more than go dumbster diving for the expired food but bewhere of any laws about dumpster diving some places have them some are fine and dont care about you doing it
cot out the Middle man and give your kitchen scraps directly to your chickens 🐔 . just scoop up all your chicken poop 💩 dog poop cow poop put that into a high sided container to give a yummy buffet to the maggot farm
When we had chickens, ( upwards of 20 of them for most of my childhood. ) we had a outdoor fireplace, and a wide steel pan on it. The previous days leftover scraps from the kitchen, mostly peelings, bones and anything like spoiled milk or the like, was put in the pan, a small amount of water added, then it was cooked up to make it soft and sterlise it. The chickens did all of the rest of the work.
And how long does it take from the time you put the leftovers in the box to the time the flies produce the maggots and you catch them in the bowl for your chickens?
Instead of putting a plate/bowl inside a box too catch the maggots, just have the plate/bowl dump into the chicken yard and leave the big box for another project. I hope that makes sense. You never need to empty the bowl again.
what stops the maggots from crawling out of the small container? i see maggots crawling on the side of my trash can in the summer sometimes so they can clearly climb plastic
It's what I raise for my girls. Meal worms are very low maintenance and they don't stink nor attract flies. They don't bite/sting/attack or really feel creepy when handling them. Can use veggie scraps from kitchen and don't have to let it rot first. Seen a video where meal worms devoured a fresh Carolina Reaper hot pepper. Made me sweat just watchin them. Ate the whole thing and didn't die.....if one believes the video. I suppose if one could train the flies to not try to get inside the house or become a sorta fly whisperer/herder/wrangler, then no worries, but considering, Imma stickin to my meal worms.
is there more protein than what you put in for food? I cant see how there would be. That's frozen edible food. You're losing energy this way. The amount of calories that one is getting from the maggots is far less than what youre putting in for them to eat. Just feed the chickens leftovers.
It’s very interesting how these disgusting creatures are actually protein for chickens and we humans eat chicken all the time which means we eat maggots! How gross! I’ll never touch chicken again!
Putting chicken fried rice in the tub, so the maggots eat the chicken, and then the chickens eat the maggots. The circle of life is beautiful
I was thinking the exact same thing. Except in a more Mad Cow direction near the end
Chickens are cannibals
Lol
@@Orelldo lol
and when the chickens die, let the maggots way the body!

That's the good stuff. I'm glad you had a Grampa to tell you stuff like that
That’s really interesting! Thanks for sharing
Perfect idea.. Hillbilly engineering😅
We need a part 2
Part 2 is when the chicken meets the hot oil..
This looks like such a simple design way more doable than some of the other ones ive seen. Love it cant wait to see how it goes
if you want free food to use use your scraps/unused leftover standard but if you want more than go dumbster diving for the expired food but bewhere of any laws about dumpster diving some places have them some are fine and dont care about you doing it
I've never wanted to see maggots grow in my life. But i want to see the chickens eat. This feels odd lol 😂😂
I need an update
Because it free
Minecraft be like
IRL mob farm 💀
thats smart i might try it lol
How much are maggots? Surely less expensive than meatballs and all the other stuff
@@jordanbomb32 i dont think you can buy maggots
That's awesome I might try it
Pretty sure your not supposed to use dirt or they’ll be able to complete there transformation into flies and you’re gonna have a lot of flies
Even better - buy a fly catcher and feed them to the chickens.
and crawl out the top of the small container all over the big one. non working demo here. F
pretty genius honestly
This shit is like a minecraft contraption
Great fish bait also
fun fact if you point a blowtorch at a pile/ container of maggots they make popping sounds like popcorn
turn scraps into more edible form for chickens! nice! 😁👍🏻🖤👏🏻
Here in England, we use maggots as fishing bait!
YOU ROCK!! Total sustainability!! Imma do this!
cot out the Middle man and give your kitchen scraps directly to your chickens 🐔
.
just scoop up all your chicken poop 💩
dog poop cow poop put that into a high sided container to give a yummy buffet to the maggot farm
the smell must be heavenly
cool idea 💡🙈
I love maggots, please do a maggot give away for your subscribers.
Bro has a maggot farm while I have a chicken wing farm 1028 chicken per minute
Forbidden Mac and cheese
Lost my appetite for chicken 🍗🐓
Any thing that attracts flys me: so any thing🤔😶🌫️

bro made a minecraft animal farm
You could just kill somebody and just leave their body and come back every week to harvest the worm things
Didn't look like leftovers LOL
you can use a5 gallon bucket with holes drilled near the bottom. They drop on the ground ... for maybe 5 seconds. 🤣
That. Is. Brilliant!
Yeah, I'm never eating chicken again.
Not just chickens u could grow magets and feed the flys to insects like jumping spiders
Do you think you'll ever collaborate with Kendal Gray.Because I'd love to see it.
My chickens hate maggots
And how long does it take from the time you put the leftovers in the box to the time the flies produce the maggots and you catch them in the bowl for your chickens?
Using premade frozen food instead of leftovers or something cheaper makes me crazy.
Instead of putting a plate/bowl inside a box too catch the maggots, just have the plate/bowl dump into the chicken yard and leave the big box for another project. I hope that makes sense. You never need to empty the bowl again.
Great idea but I don't want my eggs to taste like maggots.
Nice
bro is it just me or u sound like sheldosn brother from young sheldon
YUM. I like to eat meal worms more though.
Chickens eats maggots we eat chicken🫨…
what stops the maggots from crawling out of the small container? i see maggots crawling on the side of my trash can in the summer sometimes so they can clearly climb plastic
Blowfly girl approves
Why not meal worms?
It's what I raise for my girls. Meal worms are very low maintenance and they don't stink nor attract flies. They don't bite/sting/attack or really feel creepy when handling them. Can use veggie scraps from kitchen and don't have to let it rot first.

Meal worms are very expensive.
Mealworms are so expensive if you are going to feed chickens…Yikes!😮😊
Better than that b******* chicken feed at the feed store that's making these chickens stop laying. You are great Tate I enjoy your content brother!
Wow, a pet farm!!!
I bet you can end food waste with only maggots
I thought if a chicken eats a maggot it will kill the chicken
its gotta be hot for this to work.
And then people bitch about what pigs eat..
seems like a minecraft farm.
it's almost like minecraft farms are based on real farms that existed before minecraft
@@beanymcgill8360 nah
Try wet cat food and in three days you should get magets
this some minecraft sht right here.
So what keeps the maggots' from climbing up and out of the little bowl on the bottom?
Cool?
Hello

NOOOOOOO! Please take out the soil! It won't work!!!
Bruh..... That's an accent accent
Too bad you made now you going to have a whole ton of flys
