    ID plant, is it edible for chickens?

    Well I gave some of the Beauty Berries to the chickens, they seem to like them. I'll give them in limited quantities to avoid problems of too many berries.

    ID plant, is it edible for chickens?

    Thanks for all the quick replies. I believe it is definitely Beauty Berry. I'll give a little to the chickens and see what they think. Where their run is now they can not get to it. But I plan on increasing their run and when I do they will have access to it. Thanks again

    11 weeks old today , what to feed?

    The reason I had mentioned Brahmas is because it is my understanding they take a bit longer to mature and I was not sure if the protein % mattered. I had originally meant for this thread to be in the Brahma thread.

    Success with shipping

    After reading some of the bad results with the post office and chicks I thought I would post a success story. We ordered 10 Light Brahma's from Cackle Hatchery. We ordered 10 to avoid the chicken math problem which is the same math problem we had in the past with exotic birds. One pet became 60+...
