lupin seeds
« on: June 13, 2011, 21:33 »
I remember reading somewhere (not always a reliable sorce my memory!) that chickens love lupin seeds.

Do they?  If so do they need preparing in any way?

Think you might be right, I found this website which lists Lupins as poisonous.  www.hensforpets.co.uk/advice/poisonous-plants
