Cinnamon spice add to food?

Hi! Is it beneficial to add cinnamon to chickens feed? I'm getting conflicting information when I research it. Thank you.

If they needed it, it would already be in their commercial feed. What are you hearing?

I did a ton of research previously because my conures and budgies will get snacks off of our foods, especially banana bread. Because of said research, I only use Ceylon cinnamon now as it's true cinnamon. I'm sorry that I don't remember the exact why but the other cinnamons can be bad/dangerous for them. I would presume it is the same for all birds including chickens.
