The potassium oxalate and oxalic acid would worry me, but I have no idea at what point it would be a problem...

I believe that when they have free choice of what to eat, chickens won't eat the bad stuff or too much of what should be eaten in moderation. Recalling that some things are bad for humans and suitable for animals.
