Hey y'all, I have a question about beans. I have always heard that chickens shouldn't eat raw beans because of the lectins, and every source I've looked at says to cook beans before adding them to your chickens' feed. I normally feed my birds a homemade mix of raw grains which I soak in water...
My ducks and geese live peas and I thought I’d save money buying dried peas from the feed store.
Only, they are not peas. They are field peas, which are apparent a kind of bean.
I’ve tried sprouting them to see if that gets rid of the horrible taste but it doesn’t.

Hi all,
Can anybody make a list for me of what chickens can NOT eat? I want to be extra safe when mine grow up...
I thought a few were:
Potato peals
black beans
non cooked rice
Thank you
