Hosta OK?

I thought the chickens obliterated them. They were a chewed up mess when I posted this. Now they look better than ever and my 23 free ranging birds can't keep up with them!

Wow I am surprized chickens can eat them, they are toxic to cats, dogs and horses.

Two of our meat birds started eating the hostas (two roosters). Once I increased the protein in their diet, they lost interest in the hostas.
