Ok to let chickens forage in bean at end of their season?

[ForTheLoveOfSilkies]

My purple and yellow climbing beans are at their end of season, is it ok to let chickens forage around and clear that garden bed for me if no more beans are growing? Or are the leaves / vines or ground toxic too?

I'm not sure if it's toxic to them or not, but chickens know what to eat and what not to eat. So I wouldn't worry about them getting poisoned!

Yes, absolutely! My garden is surrounded by a 6' fence and, after each growing season, I remove a section to give them access. They glean leftover veggies and greenery, eradicate bugs and leave poop to turn in for the next planting.

Thanks! I usually do allow my chickens to tidy up and turn over my garden beds but just wasn't sure on the beans. They love it!!!
