7 Surprising Rules for Feeding Chickens

[@robduell3856]

Chicken love garlic and the flavor carries over to the eggs and are great for pasta deviled eggs and just eggs for breakfast!

[@henhero]

Garlic is actually good for health of chickens and natural repellent ;)

My grandparents fed their chickens potato skins , my dad does & so do I and I don't believe it will kill a chicken to eat potato peeling , good Grief.

[@mikebrines5708]

He said, GREEN potato skins, which are not good for anyone to eat. Green potatoes can be unsafe to eat because they may contain solanine, a neurotoxin that can cause health problems. Solanine is produced by a potato's skin cells when exposed to light, which also causes the skin to turn green. Solanine protects potatoes from animals and gives them a bitter taste. Eating large quantities of green potatoes can cause digestive issues, headaches, and neurological problems, and in extreme cases, death.

Karn, THIS video did Not say potato peeling would kill your chickens. Too Green of potato peeling not good.

My Grandad fed his Chickens on Corn and Kitchen Scraps. Literally nothing else. They did fine. This isn't as hard as folks make it out to be. Commercial bagged pellet, specially created for Chicken, has only really been a thing for about 75 years. Chickens survived and thrived under domestication for literally thousands of years without pellet.

This is incorrect. You absolutely can feed chickens garlic & it can be put in their water as well (for health benefits). It's onions that chickens can't have. Everyone I know feeds their chickens mealworms.

Should I clip the feathers away from my chickens buts, I see some pop gets stuck on their feathers, is it their food it do I need to add something to their diet to prevent this?

[@jjlepepe5875]

This happens to all chickens.

[@estellawebb5070]

Do I need to feed my rooster different feed from my hens? Will layer feed cause them health issues? Do I need to separate my roosters feed?

[@jjlepepe5875]

The roosters can eat the same feed

[@SecludedSilvy]

[@dylandewet2723]

[@thomassparks4863]

Tell the world you don’t know anything about what you’re talking about without telling the world you dont know anything about what you’re talking about in this video. lol this is a waste of our time and there is a lot of false information in it.

[@garnetrodgers]

Do i have to supply grit for my chickens if i give them oyster and egg shells?

[@CluckyBaby]

I do, one bag is cheap and lasts a long time

[@annuitcptis3032]

You can't feed them garlic????!!!!! I know about not feeding them onions, but garlic???!🤔

[@Specogecko]

Anything in small amounts is fine. Onions and garlic is large amounts for weeks on end 24/7 is bad.

[@estellawebb5070]

Garlic powder???

[@jjlepepe5875]

You can feed them garlic and it also has health benefits if put chopped up and put in their water (it must be allowed to sit for a few minutes after chopping before it goes into the water for full benefits). Chickens should not eat onions

[@jjlepepe5875]

​@@SpecogeckoChickens shouldn't have onions at all. The video stated this was the case for garlic. Not true

[@Specogecko]

@@jjlepepe5875 🙄 I’m. Talking about alliums in general lol. I ain’t trying to repeat what the video is saying.

[@ang_sideways]

Oh my God LMAO I should have took a class like a whole semester on chickens before I got them i mean yeah I feed them in their bowls too but I throw a lot of that on the ground form LOL okay good to know next😉💩🤣
