    Help! Are Plumeria Leaves Poisonous to year old pullets??

    Here are my sweet 4 week old peeps!

    I thought I'd show some pictures of the girls at 4 weeks...I had a hard time finding pictures at the different stages- I could only find newborns or older chickens, so I've been taking lots of pictures of them. One is 1 day old chicks in their muck bucket brooder, one picture is of the peeps at...
