Is it safe/ok to feed chickens the left over turkey?

[SeattleChickenHead]

ive been wondering the same thing kinda, the bones arent a danger? whole chicken/turkey carcass OK? Ive got a picked over chicken carcass here.

Yeah, I gave them the whole carcass and they just picked it clean and left the bones and a little "extra".

Can you do this with a carcass that's been boiled for soup stock?

Any and all leftovers.

Mine like meatloaf and chili.

My Delawares - tho known for their foraging - will find and eat moles - baby bunnies and any sort of au natural meat they can find! The one even caught a toad one day - they are quite the little dinosaurs - i give them turkey and things all the time!

I give them almost everything, of course you will want to consult the list of foods they can't have

I gave my leftover turkey carcass to my hens today and they tore it up! One would have thought that it was their Thanksgiving!

As I was reading all the posts about feeding the carcass to the chickens, I was telling myself that they won't get it until after my soup stock is made tonight! That is the ultimate in recycling and why I got my chickens in the first place.
