This may sound very newbieish, but I am wondering a couple of things. Is there any greens that are not good for chickens from the garden, meaning:
The parsnips have huge leaves, and I cut them off before I bring them to the house to do things with, can they eat these leaves, I don't know that they will, but can they? Are there any greens that are just "not good" for the birds? In the past I have always composted all greens, but because there isn't as much "greenery" around as back in my old life on the south coast, is there something I should not be feeding the birds?
I know that peppers are not good for them (at least I think that is something I remember from the cobwebs of my mind), or am I wrong about that one? I would love to hear comments on these things. Beautiful and wonderful days, CynthiaM.
By the way, gotta sugar baby watermelons coming out my ears, they actually ripened, never was able to grow watermelons, ever....before, can't wait to give them the rinds, bet the eggs are gonna be super sweets, just like the corn that coming on fast and furious!!
