[Stoves] Charcoal in Animal Feed and Bedding

[Yury Yudkevich]

Dear Tom,
 One of the most effective treatment for poisoning is activated 
charcoal. Animals and birds in cages have little movement. The digestive 
system is working satisfactorily. Charcoal absorbs the gas in the 
stomach. Poultry or pig cease to feel the pressure of gases. They eat 
more. They gain weight faster. They get sick less. It has been known in 
the Soviet Union. Many businesses were added to the coal feed. Russian 
women in the villages make charcoal chickens and pigs and now. There 
were papers on the subject. This tradition has been lost in modern 
Russia at the state level, but is known to peasants.
Thanks,
Yury Yudkevich.  charwood at rambler.ru
