I was thinking of planting a kumquat tree in the chicken yard. Is it ok for the chickens to eat extra fruit that drops?
Make that Loquat. Can chickens eat loquats?

In wouldn’t worry at all. We have an apple tree in our run and the fruit falls and rots all the time. They pick at the fruit, but I’ve never noticed them eating it in excess.I'll add a couple questions...
Should I be concerned about the sugar content in the loquats?
Should I be concerned about the over-ripe fallen fruit?
Actually, I appreciate the updated threads because, like you, I think many of us find these threads from asking google as the search method on this site isn't the clearest, IMO. So, in my case, it was helpful that you posted here. Sorry I can't answer your questions but I will say that I have a loquat tree and have heard that the seeds and leaves are toxic to all animals!I must have missed that rule. I'll be sure to start a new thread on the same topic going forward. And I'll avoid asking google as it will most likely point me to a thread here.
