🧪 DIY Probiotics for Gamefowl (Fermented Rice Water Method)
🧂 Ingredients:
-
1 cup uncooked rice
-
2 cups clean, chlorine-free water (filtered or boiled & cooled)
-
1 tablespoon brown sugar or molasses (optional – helps fermentation)
-
1 small piece of ripe banana peel or a handful of raw leafy greens (optional – good bacteria source)
-
A clean container with a loose lid (like a mason jar or plastic bottle)
🥣 Instructions:
✅ Step 1: Make Rice Wash
-
Wash the rice lightly with the water (don’t throw the water!).
-
You want the milky-white water after mixing it up for about 1–2 minutes.
✅ Step 2: Transfer to Container
-
Pour the rice wash water into your clean container.
-
Add banana peel or a few raw greens (this introduces good bacteria).
-
Add sugar or molasses (optional, but speeds up fermentation).
✅ Step 3: Cover and Ferment
-
Cover the container with a loose lid or cloth with a rubber band (needs to breathe).
-
Store in a warm, dark place (like a cabinet or corner) for 2–3 days.
⏳ You’ll know it’s ready when:
-
It smells slightly sour (like yogurt or fermented fruit).
-
There are bubbles or a little fizz—that's the good bacteria working!
🧴 How to Use:
-
Dosage: 10–20 ml per liter of drinking water
-
Frequency: 2–3x a week, or daily during conditioning or recovery
-
Storage: Keep refrigerated up to 1–2 weeks. Shake before using.
