Just put my month olds outside into the coop. Any advice on what kitchen scraps are not so good for chickens? I know that they won't eat citrus or melon rinds, and there is conflicting information out there about onions and the brassicas. Of course they LOVE leafy greens. Anyone know for sure about toxic plants?

Check out this great and fun educational program.  You rent an incubator, host some eggs to hatching, and then give the chicks back.  Or potentially keep them!
