Can chickens eat chives?

[Ducksandchickens]

We have a small part of your garden that is mostly chives. I have been feeding my chickens chives but then I realized I really didn’t know if I was supposed to. They seem to like the chives but I just want to make sure that they can eat them

So does anyone know if chickens (actually, and ducks) can eat chives?

I don't think it would hurt them. If they eat quite a bit, perhaps it could affect the taste of their eggs?

My chickens don't like anything in the onion family.

My birds like garlic bulbils. When I'm planting them in the orchard, I have to keep the birds penned up. They've never bothered the chives.
