Avoid Toxic/Harmful Foods

Solution

Never feed chickens avocado pits/skins, raw or dried beans, moldy food, green potato skins/sprouts, chocolate, caffeine, alcohol, or highly salty/sugary/fatty processed foods.

Explanation

These items contain toxins (like persin in avocado, phytohemagglutinin in raw beans, solanine in green potatoes) or substances that are harmful to chickens' digestive or nervous systems. Moldy food can contain mycotoxins.

Notes

When in doubt, research a specific food item before offering it.
