What about sable palm berries? I can't find anything on that.This is from Chicken Keeping Secrets newsletter http://www.chickenkeepingsecrets.com I thought that I would post this for you all:
Hi Graham,
I'm glad you wrote and you are right to be concerned about the
oak tree.
You would absolutely need to make sure your chickens do not eat
any dropped acorns.
Oak leaves as well as acorns can be toxic to chickens and as
chickens are very curious eaters, you can't assume that they will
know to keep away from them.
Chickens will eat most anything!
This would include screws, Styrofoam, most anything so everyone
LISTEN - make sure your chickens have an area that is completely
free from anything they should not ingest.
When it comes to plants though, I know that personally I tend to
not be quite as vigilant.
Especially if it is a plant that I've planted in my garden.
For this reason, I think it would be a good idea to re-post a
list of plants that are toxic to poultry. We posted this list
quite some time ago but because we have so many new readers each
week and because we could all use a reminder, check out this list
for the safety of your flock.

I know that as I typed it, I was reminded of many very common

Again for Graham, I applaud you for being concerned about the
safety of your flock and hope you can come up with a workable
solution for your chickens.

I’m wondering this as well!What about vitex trees? Native to Texas and there are several on the property. The girls dig under it and sometimes peck at the dried flowers. I couldn't find anything on it. They have access to other things so I'm thinking they're just tasting it. Haven't torn it up like the calendula!!!!!!

Chickens have been free ranging and feeding themselves on what they find for thousands of years, long before they were domesticated. They did not die and go extinct from these poisons.Ok...so...there are multiple sites stating that parsley is a super food for chickens ..
