Hi everyone, I'm posting here for "behaviors".
I'm wondering if anyone has compiled a compendium of typical plants that chickens, on the whole, tend to ignore.
I have a reasonable garden in my yard that they forage in and I'd like to expand with some more flowers and edible plants/herbs.
So far, the flowers and edibles that the chickens ignore in my yard are: purple irises, peach bearded irises, garlic chives, rhubarb, hosta, pole beans. They will leave fronded stalks of asparagus alone but they will pick at the soft tender sprouts.
Anyone got more they can add to the list??
