    Herbs For Chickens?

    That's a great idea! We have lots of flies in the coop right now, no matter how much I clean. I gave them some sage yesterday on accident because they love clover and I was weeding that out of the garden to give them. Well, I clipped some sage to take inside and ended up throwing that into...

    Herbs For Chickens?
