Can chickens eat honey?

[pdirt]

I read elsewhere  yoghurt is not a good idea for chickens because they are not equipped with the enzymes required to break down dairy products you may be better to give them a specially designed probiotic

Not to worry much with fermented dairy products like yogurt. The lactose sugars in dairy (which they can't digest as you mentioned) are mostly broken down in fermented dairy. Our chickens love a bit of yogurt.

"I nursed a blind chick back from the brink of death on a slurry of honey, water, baby vitamins and chick starter." What are your measurements for this recipe?
