I have sprouted the hard red wheat for the chickens. They love it!
I sprout corn for them also, just ordinary popcorn from the store. We had a 20# bag of popcorn in our food storage. A red squirrel got into the basement and chewed the bag open and over 1/2 the bag ended up in a pile on the floor. That squirrel must have thought he went to heaven! I wasn't going to throw out 20# of corn, but I won't eat it once it was on the floor and dug through by a squirrel either. So sprout it for the chickens was about my only choice.
