Are these "safe" plants?

[WhySayWhat]

I have the list somewhere...I think I bought safe plant seeds to start this Spring, but I just want to double check!

Flowers:
Hollyhock - Chater's Double
Sweet Peas - Royal Mix
Calendula - Mixed Colors (Bedding type)
Alyssum - Carpet of Snow
Sunflower - Mammoth (Pretty sure this is a safe one, lol)
Marigold - Dwarf French Mix
Veggies:
Squash - Yellow Crookneck
Lima Beans - Henderson's Bush
Herbs:
Chives
Dill - Long Island Mammoth

The Alyssum and Hollyhock are the ones I'm not too sure about, the rest are all edible by humans at least.

Here is a website with all of the toxic plants listed http://www.poultryhelp.com/toxicplants.html#H

So if I can't find it on there, I'm okay right?

Just be careful that they don't eat too much of your chives. It might make your eggs taste a bit funky.

You should be fine

So I went through that post...it says Chives, Lima Beans, and Sweet Peas are all toxic! I guess I'll have to figure out a spot to grow them where the birds can't get at them, I'm not complaining too much, it's only $0.30 if I decide not to chance it and just return them to the store for more "chicken friendly" plants. I was hoping I could share my love of Lima's with someone other than the dog, lol.

Back to the store tomorrow to exchange these...I wonder if I can condense that list into something I can take with me...

I actually do the majority of my gardening in containers...easier than trying to figure out where the electricity is underground! My herbs will most definitely be in containers, keeps them easy to get to for cooking.
