    EATING STYROFOAM....HARMFUL?

    If Chickens can eat Shells, Stones, Styrofoam and some VERY annoying bugs, rodents and I don't know what... They MUST have a very selective digestive system... Smart Birds! 😎💖 Chickens are Pretty Good in Knowing What to Eat or Not!

    wow @007Sean You Raise a ton of pheasants and quail. How do you have time for all of those. That must be a ton of work to do. Quails and pheasants are amazing poultry to have though.

My younger sister is in charge of that, but sometimes it's hard to come up with original names, and/or to remember the right name with the right chick. Some are on hold till we know more about them. But if we keep...
