Hi all,
I'm in the mood to spruce up my garden this year and I'm wondering how cautious you all are with plants. My chickens are free range and roam the entire neighborhood, so they are already exposed to any number of plants that may or may not be edible. I've seen them devour entire bushes and they definitely love to sample things. That being said, they've never managed to eat anything that ended up being fatal or making them sick. Can I rely on their survival instincts to keep them safe, or should I be picky about what I plant in my yard?
