Has anyone given their Chickens sweet potatoes? I think I might cut one up and see what they do tomorrow.

I haven't but I'm sure they'd go crazy for them......sweet, sorta like pumpkin I would guess. Mine love pumpkin, seeds & all!!

Mine did not like sweet potatoes.
And since then, I've read not to give
them raw ones. I'll try cooked ones next.

I've also read where it said not to give them green/unripe potatoes with skins. Something in the skin but sweet potatoes might be ok. Theres a chart on this site somewhere that states feeding do/don'ts.

Here is the "Treat Chart" on BYC: https://www.backyardchickens.com/web/viewblog.php?id=2593-Treats%20Chart
My babes got raw broccoli & red seedless grapes. They are so-so about the grapes, but tear the heck out of the broccoli. Almost like a shark feeding frenzy.
