Granny's gone and done it again

They eat pretty much anything!

Yeah when you are starving you will eat anything

Yes very good for the lungs. Dry it boil it then drink half infusion with half milk..

if thats the same thing they had on naked peeps they smoked it for the heart. Lowered the rate and made it more steady.

Is that some type of fern?

They may eat it now, but as Cap pointed out..it's more of a treat. Make sure you feed your chickens some good healthy chicken feed. They can enjoy treats from the kitchen every now and again too. Summer time..melons. Fall time...pumpkin. Not too m7ch spinach. Or too much of any treat. A once in a while thing.

And make sure they get grit if you feed them other things besides chick feed.

You're welcome

At what age do I need to start scratch food with my chickens. They are 9 weeks old today.

Make sure they have access to grit so their gizzards can grind up the solids.

edit-
Oops, I see Cap already covered that.

Very cool. The brown stalks are dried spore cases.
