cluckingmad Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Hi all, We have a lovely red cordyline australis plant right where our walk in run is.... been searching for weeks to see if this is poinsonous to chooks and can't find any mention of it anywhere.... does anyone know whether its safe? Have to wince at the usual disclaimers on the websites of toxic plants .."just because its listed here doesn't mean it isn't a goood feeed and just because it ISN'T listed doesn't mean its safe".... How very helpful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 I don't think it would be a problem Its not exactly attractive as a foodstuff but when did that ever stop a chicken! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluckingmad Posted April 21, 2009 Author Share Posted April 21, 2009 True Have read some stunnign posts on here about chooks eating rhubarb, although mine don't really have much interest in ours.. they much prefer to peck at the daffs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluckbok Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 I've got a green one behind the eglu and they don't bother with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doodles Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 I've got green ones and red ones in the garden and they don't seem to be interested in nibbling them at all - just seem to like digging around underneath them! Doodles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
