I have a good size fenced in garden that I split it into two parts, a "chicken area" and a "garden area". The "garden area" is fenced off from the chickens during garden season but is open for the chickens during the off garden season. I grow crimson clover for the winter in the "garden area" and let the chickens eat it and they love it but when garden time gets here, I till it in and block it off from the chickens. Right now I don't have anything in particular growing in the "chicken area" they can eat on besides what I call Tennessee grass.
What would you plant in the "chicken area" that the chickens will love to eat, preferably perennials? I do mow the "chicken area" about every other time I mow my yard so tall stuff would probably be out of the question. Right now I am thinking white clover.
