Chinese Hackberry tree?

[kellyokelly]

Hello,
We're trying to figure out where to place our yet-to-be-built coop in our small suburban yard. One of the places could be under a big Chinese Hackberry tree that gives great shade in the summer. Do any of you have any experience with this tree? Is it ok for chickens? Thank you!

I don't have one but it would be an excellent shade tree for chickens.

Any non-poisonous tree makes great shade/shelter for a chicken coop.

The chickens will probably love to clean up the fruit for you.
