Rutabaga Greens

[This_chicks_place]

Hello All, I just thinned out the rutabagas in the garden and I'm wondering if the girls can have the greens to snack on? I can't seem to find the answer any where online. Any thoughts?

Yes, definitely. Anything in the mustard/cabbage family is edible and seems to be a favorite with my birds. My goslings stripped the arugula from my planters, which was fine since it was going to seed. Rutabaga greens are perfectly edible.

You can eat 'em too! We like them cut into strips and sauteed in bacon fat (like kale)
