Hello! The local Pizza Restaurant is giving us their scraps of pizza and salad. I really want to stop buying 50lbs of feed every month. What is the maximum percent of pizza scraps that I can give my chickens? Thank you!

I wouldn’t do that I don’t think that is good for their health. The salad probably would be OK as long as it doesn’t have salad dressing on it. I don’t know about pizza though. I mean just think about people that eat pizza and salad with lots of dressing, they usually are obese and that is not good for your health. I think obesity in chickens usually leads to reproductive problems and a shorter lifespan.Hello! The local Pizza Restaurant is giving us their scraps of pizza and salad.

I would also be worried about having to give a lot of butt baths! That’s what happens when I give my chickens too many treats!I'd be worried about the amount of salt in the meat and cheese, and even the crust. I've read that too much salt is really bad for chickens.
Chicken feed is cheap! Pizza and salad as treats, maybe. As a food source, no.
I would hope that this isn't stuff scraped off plates?!? That's definitely a NO!
