welovemarmite Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I have found myself a spare rhubarb plant but running out of places to put it! Now, i know the leaves are toxic, but is this a plant i could plant in the chickens half of the garden and they will safely leave it alone?

Olly Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 No! in a word ... they love it and will strip it bare in no time, it's never caused mine any health problems as far as I'm aware but you won't get any rhubarb from it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjp Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I've lost a rhubarb to chickens mine stripped bare in no time given the chance they'll do it to tomatoes and potato plants as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
