Can chickens have dehydrated greens? (Second try)

[MaiseyMay]

Posted to the wrong thread the first time...duh! My question: I dehydrate excess garden items such as herbs and collard greens. I get tons of collards and they dehydrate quickly and I crush them up and vacuum seal them in canning jars using my Foodsaver. I've found that I can use these crushed greens in soups, stews and rice dishes very nicely. I dehydrate lots of other veggies and fruits as well but I was wondering if chickens would eat these crushed greens. I have a ton of dried oregano, sage, mint, bee balm, collards and even some cabbage. Any thoughts?

Some chickens are picky, but I find that once my girls get a taste of something good they will remember it forever. Give them a small amount at first and leave it with them, then come back the next day and give them more. I have a feeling that they will LOVE the dehydrated greens, especially in the winter. Oregano is also a mild natural antibiotic, and you must know that all the other herbs and veggies are good as well

so go for it. And if they don't immediately take to it, you can mix in with their feed.
