We get a lot of clover in our garden, but OH said I mustn't feed it to the chooks, anyone know if this is right?  or is he talking rubbish again!!!!!

We get 2 sorts,one has a brown spot on each leaf, the other is all green!

We have it in the lawn and the chooks graze there.  But I thik they choose to eat the grass rather than the clover.

It blows up sheep and cows though doesn't it grannie !

We call it staggers & it can be fatal.  Dairy cows can get it by gorging themselves on new spring grass giving them a magnesium deficiency.
