Wild Hawthorn berries

[patman75]

I have a few large wild hawthorn tree on my property. Are the berries safe for my chickens to eat?

I have read wild birds eat them and they are used in alternative supplements for their antioxidants.

SSOOOO I'm assuming they are safe

. But if any has any expierence with them or have chickens that eat them all up and aren't dead, it would be great to hear from ya.

Thanks!

Hi

Certainly my wild birds eat the hawthorn berries.
You can use them to make a tasty jelly (for humans).
Hawthorn regulates the blood pressure: Good for high and low BP. This from a herbal for humans.
Can't see how it wld hurt chooks tho.
