CAT'S WISKERS PLANT..CAN CHICKENS EAT IT?

[Susan Widmer]

Hello. This is my 1st time posting a question to this website so I'm not even sure if I'm on the right track.. Anyway, I have about 25 free range chickens and I'm always looking for some kind of plant to put in their area that they will NOT eat. I found a unique plant that's called a CAT'S WISKERS. It's quite a beautiful plant but I'm not sure if it's poisonous to chickens and cannot find out anything on the Web.. Does anyone know the answer to this? I would be very grateful for your reply. Susan.

I honestly wouldn't worry about toxic plants, mine have eaten every 'toxic' plant on my property. A quick search says that only the roots have the possibility of being toxic, yoy could plant them through chicken wire but I doubt the chickens would bother with it.
