Granny's gone and done it again

I don't understand. :confused:
Rhubarb looks like red celery. It's sour and has to be cooked to eat, you don't eat the leaves. Pies and jams mixed with strawberries are how it's usually used, but I bet it could be made into relish also.

NOPE you can eat it raw, usually dipped in a glass of sugar or some use salt, IT can also be mainly green, Needs winter weather to do well comes back from the roots every year and usually bigger, You can grow it in the south BUT have to treat is as an annual. You can also put it in a pie by itself or simmer down into a sause by itself or with strawberries.
 
I can't read enough about chicken's health these last few days+
I just came across some excellent info I just have to share about feed/feeding.

Common mistakes made with supplements include the following:

  • Providing vitamin and electrolyte supplements for more than 10 days
  • Supplementing complete feeds with cracked corn, oats, or other grains
  • Regularly adding green chops, lettuce, or other low nutrition ingredients to the diet
  • Administering inappropriate or unnecessary medication
Chickens are compelled to scratch at the ground. They use their toes to mix up litter or scrape the ground in search of various seeds, greens, grit, or insects to eat. Spreading scratch grains(cracked, rolled, or whole grains such as corn, barley, oats, or wheat) encourages this behavior. Scratch grains are relatively low in protein and high in energy or fiber, depending on which grain is used. When scratch grains are fed with complete feeds, they dilute the nutrition levels in the carefully formulated diets. Scratch grains are like french fries—chickens that eat too many scratch grains have less of an appetite for more nutritious feed. If you are using scratch grains, feed them to chickens in the afternoon after birds have eaten complete feed, and then provide only as much scratch grains as chickens can finish in 15 to 20 minutes.
