Chickens Fav Treats!!!!

[iwiw60]

does anyone know of any herbs that chickens cannot eat. I am an herbalist so I have many different types in the garden. I just don't want to let them eat anything harmful to them.

I'm a member of a FB group for gardening and someone posted pics of all this green stuff they needed iD'd from inside the chicken run. All kinds of people were blown away that these hadn't been eaten by the chickens. Seems they just know.

its nice to know that they won't eat what's not good for them. I pamper my girls.

An easy treat I found recently.. put water in their regular feed, mix with fingers.. I don't even have the fingers out of the bowl that the hens are eating

My chickens love crickets and flies, they don't like worms much.
But if my rooster Rocky sees you with a Blueberry then you better hand it over or he will attack you

I have never tried giving Rocky any thing then then blueberries because he wont eat any other fruits, he just turns his tail at them,
And that's funny that your roo's name is Rocky too

Mine is a White Leghorn, what's yours?
