Do your chickens like sour grass or sheep sorrel?

since they don't seem to do citrus I was curious...

I have sour grass all over in my yard, the chickens love to eat the young shoots as well as the flowers. I also have sheep sorrel which they leave alone entirely. They will scratch all around the sheep sorrel looking for the worms that congregate in the roots of the plant.

I had to google "sour grass" to see what it is, and YES - they love it. In fact, we call it"chicky weed" because they love it so much, especially the flowers. I wish they loved all my weeds as much as this one.

Mine love it, and they love my bloody dock plants, and the wild mustard weeds that are springing up everywhere.
