Until they are full? I have tons of blackberries all over and they will eat until done in the years they ripen at a good time. None have ever got sick. The large fowl have one taking over in their pen right now. It gives shade and they strip all leaves they can reach as they grow.

Yup, and purple poo everywhere.

Yeah I always have to remind myself not to be alarmed when the entire flock suddenly starts pooping black.

We don't have as much blackberry this year - still way more than the chickens can eat, but normally it's all up and down the length of the driveway. This year it's patchy for sure.

Mine have not turned ripe yet still waiting.

Freeze, then use for pies, maybe freezer jam.

 

[PopoMyers]

I like to freeze just the juice. May ferment later for a tasty summer drink.
