Can Chickens eat canned Vegetables?

People worry to much about the salt, it's an essential nutrient that they need and for it to do any real harm it has to be taken in copious amounts every day, amounts that are highly unlikely in any food that is palatable... The salt in canned vegetables is likely no worse then chickens in coastal areas scratching around the salt saturated soil at then end of the day...
Ditto this. My birds visit the salt block in my horse pasture usually once a day and scratch around right at the bottom of it.
 
Yes. The only thing to worry about might be the added salt. Since it is only a occasional thing I wouldn't worry about that. That goes for most other canned foods.
This is wrong info. You should feed chickens any beans. Canned vegetables are just fine and like you said the salt content is high. I don't know how long in between feeding it to them. I just put some canned vegetables in a feed trough that I use for scraps as well.
