chickens + eat + ash + leaves?
We had an Ash tree fall behind our house last night. My wife and I also own a coop with 37 chickens in it. These are young chickens. We hope they will be laying eggs in a month or so.They free range during the day and they seem to have an appetite for anything. I had this bright idea to see if our chickens might like to eat some of the leaves since the branches are all over the yard anyway. They certainly love to eat cut grass. I have read the Oak leaves are bad for chickens. What about Ash leaves?? Any problems?
