Hi,
I am very new at raising chickens. We have 3 big girls and 2 little girls that are still in a small crate in our garage. The big girls are outside in their pen/coop. We built a 8 x 8 x 12 fenced area with the coop inside. We included a Freesia and an Azalea inside the fenced area. The big girls have pretty much ate all the leaves off the Freesia and now are attacking the Azalea with a vengence. So much so that I am wanting my husband to dig it up and put it on the outside of the wire. My question is: Is it ok for them to have access to foilage? Will they stop or gorge themselves until they waddle? I appreciate any and all advice.
Thanks,
GG
