Hi,
I have just lanscaped 200m^2 of garden and I am in the process of kitting it out with old railway sleepers (untreated) and a massive selection of plants.
My Campbell duck and 3 chickens have taken an interest in the new foliage and I am constantly chasing them away.
I have bough quite a few ferns, tree ferns and large grasses for the shaded areas around the pond.
I know ferns are poisonous to most animals and so they don't get eaten...but one of my chickens can help taking a mouthful.
Is this something I should be concerned with?
Are there any plants I should avoid like the plague...for example are foxgloves ok?
cheers,
Woka
