are mums safe for a chicken to eat?

[Jenikate]

Because mine just destroyed 2 large mum plants...cant find much on the web, but I know they can be bad to some animals.

My geese occasionally eat them and have always been okay afterwards.

I just had the same thing happen. They all seem to have runny poo now.

Chickens love mums, they aren't harmful to them. I get some for the girls every fall.

The mum plant or flower is the source or the inspiration of both the Organic as well as the "Unnatural" pesticides Pyrethrin and Permethrin. Since both of these pesticides are safe for use on chickens I also expect that they are safe for chickens to eat.

Just make sure that the mums were not sprayed with pesticide
