As the other poster said, chickens will eat all kinds of stuff, including food waste. I've even heard you can let them loose in your garden for a limited time and they'll eat all the insects. (However you want to limit their garden time or else they'll eat your crops after finishing off the bugs.)
- MustardTiger 10y agoThey will gladly start with your crops and ignore the bugs, depending on what you are growing. Letting chickens in your garden is one of those things lots of websites repeat, but doesn't actually work well at all.
- Grishnakh 10y agoThat's good to know, I was just going off of what those websites said. So I guess it depends on what's in the garden. Perhaps if you're just growing carrots and potatoes it'll work out well.
