So I found this on youtube...do you think this maggot collector is better or the one shown in Paul's video?



The one in Paul's video is self delivering, whereas the one in the other video has to be carried to the chickens, but instead of dropping into the bucket you could probably have them fall into a dish in the chicken pen?

I'm not necessarily keen on the plastic bins...

And then I found this one that's like a combination of the other two...


thoughts?

Thanks for sharing these! Homestead designs are really personal and the best option varies from site to site and user to user. It's very helpful to be able to see several effective options in one place!
 
Can you really tell me that we aren't dealing with suspicious baked goods? And then there is this tiny ad:
