    Fried Rice?

    Would it be ok to feed a small amount of fried rice to my two chickens (no more than 1/3 cup), or is there something harmful to them in it? I can imagine it being harmful in large amounts because of the amount of salt, but not sure of just a little bit. Would hate to throw it away if it could...
