Can chickens eat sprouted sunnhemp

[Family dust bath]

I have some sunn hemp (Crotalaria juncea) which is a legume I'm growing as green manure. The seed has a toxin that is toxic for poultry and pigs. I want to know if sprouting the seed would make it good feed for the hen's. And has anyone done this?

Yes. It's safe. That legume only contains a very small amount of the alkaloids that are toxic to poultry, and sprouts would have even less, if any.
