DIY Flock Block (easy!)

Are you looking for a new way to spoil your backyard chickens? Let's make a flock block! This nutrient packed flock block is a simple and fun way to keep your chickens happy and active during cold and dreary days or during seasons of boredom. Before you start reading through these ingredients, I want you to know that these ingredients are very forgiving. Just remember, this isn't Grandma's prize winning banana bread, this is a flock block for very appreciative chickens! If you need to substitute or omit any of the ingredients, odds are the recipe will still turn out just fine. You will need: 6 eggs 2 cups chicken feed 2 cups grubs or meal worms 1 cup chickens scratch 1 cup rolled oats 3/4 cup black strap molasses 1/2 cup flour 1/2 cup melted coconut oil 1/4 cup food grade diatomaceous earth optional: 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper (great during cold months) optional: 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon (improved health) optional: 4 cloves crushed garlic (fly deterrent) how to make flock blocks 1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease two 8 or 9 inch cake pans. I added parchment paper, but this is optional. 2. Mix all ingredients in a large mixing bowl. The consistency will be coarse and messy. 3. Pour the ingredients into the prepared pan and press down to pack it as much as possible. 4. Bake for 45-55 minutes. The block will be firm, dark, and crispy. Leave the flock blocks in the cake pans for ten minutes, then invert the pans onto a cooling rack. Allow it to release naturally. After the flock blocks are fully cooled, they are ready to be served to your lucky chickens! Serve one now, and store the other in a plastic baggie for up to a week.
